Dutch Newspaper 'NRC', March 7 2024 Porthos: The first large-scale storage of CO2 under the North Sea was budgeted at half a billion. After five years, the project already appears to cost 1.3 billion euros. The costs of the first major CO2 storage project under the North...
Tim Flannery, The conversation (by cortasy of https://phys.org) in: https://phys.org/news/2024-01-carbon-dioxide-play-god-climate.html The global effort to keep climate change to safe levels—ideally within 1.5°C above pre-industrial temperatures—is moving far too slowly. And even if we stopped emitting CO2 today, the long-term impacts of the gas already in the air would continue...
Everyone's talking about CO2 these days and not only in the now-conventional sense that less of it should be released into the air. Rather, another increasingly common question is how to capture the unwanted gas from the atmosphere – and what to do with it...
