Major boost in carbon capture and storage essential to reach 2°C climate target
Large expansion of carbon capture and storage is necessary to fulfill the Paris Climate Agreement . Yet a new study led by Chalmers University of Technology, in Sweden and University of Bergen, in Norway, shows that without major efforts, the technology will not expand fast enough to meet the 2°C target and even with major efforts it is unlikely to expand fast enough for the 1.5°C target. The idea behind carbon capture and storage (CCS) technology is to capture carbon dioxide then store it deep underground. Some
