Here, using a dataset of terrestrial carbon dioxide removals based on scenarios assessed by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, we show that removals through afforestation and reforestation play a critical role in mitigation in the short term, accounting for about 10 % (median ) of net GHG emission reductions between 2020 and 2030 in scenarios that limit warming to 1.5\u00b0C with a limited exceedance. New carbon dioxide removal technologies, such as direct carbon capture and storage in the air, will be scaled up to multi-gigaton levels by 2050 and beyond to offset residual emissions and reduce warming. We show that reducing fossil fuel and deforestation emissions (gross emissions) accounts for more than 80 % of net greenhouse gas emission reductions to global net zero carbon dioxide (CO\u00a0<sub>2<\/sub> ) regardless of the stringency of the climate goals. We examine the regional distribution of gross emissions and total carbon removals in cost-effective mitigation options and highlight the importance of incorporating equity and broader sustainability considerations into future assessments of carbon removal mitigation options.
