Leading University Carbon Management Programs

​Join us for the second webinar in the OpenAir Collective's 2027 Carbon Removal Challenge webinar series! Learn about what leading carbon management programs are doing to protect the planet, trends and breakthroughs they are seeing, startups they have spun off, and what they look for in prospective students, postdocs, and faculty.

​Susan Fancy is Managing Director of the Global CO2 Institute at the University of Michigan. The Institute's mission is to provide the leadership necessary to scale CO2 capture and utilization through evaluation, research, education, training, and outreach.

​Toby Bryce is Managing Director of the Yale Center for Natural Carbon Capture. The Center funds programs and research initiatives across Yale departments and schools, focusing on ecosystem capture, geological & ocean capture, and industrial carbon utilization.

​Prof. Susana Garcia is Associate Director of Carbon Capture, Utilisation, and Storage at Heriot-Watt University's Research Centre for Carbon Solutions (RCCS). RCCS is an interdisciplinary science and engineering centre conducting research in carbon dioxide removal, carbon capture, utilisation, and storage (CCUS), hydrogen and low carbon systems, lifecycle and technoeconomic assessment, and energy materials and technology.
