Carbon capture, storage only way to achieve lowest global warming trajectory
August 22, 2014 Editor 0
Capturing and storing carbon dioxide (CO2) is the only way through which the world will achieve the lowest of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change’s (UNFCCC) global warming predictions, called the representative concentration pathway (RCP) 2.6. The RCP 2.6 is based on the assumption that all governments and societies will make strenuous efforts to mitigate CO2 production and deforestation to ensure that the emissions plateau by 2020 and then decline until a net negative emission level is achieved by the end of the century. This can only occur with CO2 capture and storage in addition to major emission reduction efforts, says UNFCCC intergovernmental panel on climate change member and Council for Scientific and Industrial Research system ecologist Dr Bob Scholes.
