Undersea storage for US carbon emissions
Researchers are working hard on methods to mitigate, reduce or compensate for CO2 emissions. One of these, geological carbon sequestration, involves injecting CO2 into deep saline aquifers, or depleted oil and gas reservoirs so that it is not released into the atmosphere where it contributes to global warming. Now US researchers have found a potential new location for undersea CO2 storage, which they believe could store US CO2 emissions for over 100 years. New research suggests that sediment ... |

Greenhouse Gas: You can`t manage what you can`t measure
The world is readying itself for greenhouse gas (GHG) regulation coming with the next US administration. Because GHGs have so far not been regulated, the imposition of restrictions on emissions has the potential to drive a fundamental restructuring of our carbon-based economy. If analysts are correct, the “right” to emit GHGs, which today is “free” in the United States, could cost industry up to US$40 per ton of carbon dioxide (CO2), or CO2 equivalent (CO2e), emitted. This represents the potential ... |
