Overview: This paper discusses the capture and storage of CO2. The main source of CO2 emissions is the combustion of coal, oil and gas in power stations, for transportation and in homes, offices and industry. Atmospheric concentrations of CO2 have risen by about one-third since pre-industrial times and are expected almost to double between now and 2100. Under the Kyoto Protocol of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), developed countries have agreed to reduce their emissions by 5.2% below 1990 levels by 2008-2012.
