The world needs to bet big on carbon capture now

It seems doubtful that even the most sadistic mind could come up with a more intractable problem than climate change. Just about every one of humanity’s activities – travelling, power generation, industrial processes and more – contribute to climate change. As the situation becomes increasingly desperate it seems that technological fixes are what humanity will have to work with to head off catastrophic climate change and carbon capture and storage is one whose time has come.
