The importance of Carbon Capture and Storage
There is currently a great deal of focus on Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) as an effective means of limiting the damage caused by climate change. However, for the world to meet its 2050 net zero goals, up to 2 billion metric tonnes of carbon needs to be captured by 2030 – at present, global capture is just 43 million metric tonnes, or 0.1 % of global emissions. To ensure that the CCS…
