Carbon capture and storage (CCS) is one of a host of technical solutions that are currently available for reducing global emissions of greenhouse gases (GHG) to the atmosphere such as capturing carbon dioxide (CO2) from power plants and industrial sources, and store it permanently in the ground without being released to the atmosphere, and thus curb the longer-term effects of anthropogenic climate change. CCS must first and foremost be considered in the context of the other things that can be done to reduce emissions, as a part of an overall optimally efficient, sustainable and economic mitigation plan. Capturing and geo-sequestering CO2 entrained in natural gas can be economic and sustainable at relatively low carbon prices, and in many jurisdictions makes financial sense for operators to deploy now, if suitable secure disposal reservoirs are available close by. The future for CCS will ultimately depend on a significant strengthening and expansion of the global climate response.
