Introduction
Marine carbon dioxide removal (mCDR) cannot ethically proceed without putting fishery considerations front and center. What would it mean—and is it even possible—to pursue mCDR in a “fishery sensitive” manner? Thirty-four commercial fishermen and fisheries representatives came together virtually from across Alaska, the West Coast, and the Northeast to explore these questions. Their roundtable discussions constitute the first-ever fishing industry-led exploration of mCDR.
