- Editor's Blog
- Argument: CCS requires significant energy; is inefficient
- Argument: Leakage of C02 from storage sites is a risk
- Argument: CCS distracts attention and resources from clean energy
- Argument: Carbon capture and sequestration is "greenwashing" for coal
- Argument: CCS makes continued dependence on hydrocarbons cleaner
- Argument: CCS can dramatically slash emissions from fossil fuels
- Argument: Carbon capture and sequestration is one part of larger climate fight
- Argument: Capturing/transporting/storing billions of tons of CO2 is not feasible
- Argument: CCS is less cost-effective than renewable energy
- Argument: CCS will take far too long to implement for climate fight
- Argument: CCS coal plants emit less C02, but more pollutants
- Argument: Carbon capture and sequestration raises costs and energy prices
- Argument: The transportation of captured carbon can be very expensive
- Argument: Risks of stored CO2 leaking is very low
- Argument: C02 would leak too slowly (thousands of years) to be a concern
- Argument: Sequestered CO2 can be injected into reservoirs to recover oil
- Argument: Climate change is best solved by energy efficiency, not CCS
- Argument: CCS doesn't have to be profitable to be a good idea
- Argument: Without a price on carbon, CCS will not spread
- Editorial: Carbon Capture and Storage: Can the Talk Be Walked?
- Argument: Burning biofuels and burying emissions can lower atmospheric CO2
- Argument: CCS can be widely deployed on existing, huge energy sources
- Argument: CCS is valuable even if years away
- Argument: CCS delays inevitable transition to clean energy
- Argument: Renewables better than CCS and dealing with carbon waste
- Argument: CCS passes C02-leakage problem to our children
- Argument: CCS can ensure that buried carbon will stay there
- Argument: General statements in favor of carbon capture and storage
- Argument: Carbon capture and storage cannot scale cost-effectively
- Argument: Carbon capture and storage requires substantial water
- Argument: Cheaper cleaner natural gas will smother carbon capture and storage
- Argument: CCS will become cost-effective as it scales
- Argument: Taxpayers would be on hook for CCS leaks
- Argument: Carbon capture and storage is smoke-and-mirrors tactic for big coal
