Original: How a secret vote by U.N. scientists legitimized carbon capture and skewed decades of climate policy

The investigation argues the decision skewed how governments and climate models treat emissions cuts versus carbon removal, with critics questioning the transparency and influence behind the vote.
Why now: A new investigative report is reviting scrutiny of how carbon capture became central to global climate policy.
