Violations Discovered at Nation’s First Carbon Capture and Storage Project

DeSmogBlog

The EPA said it had inspected three ADM wells in mid-June — one used for storing captured carbon dioxide and two used to monitor for leaks and other problems. An ADM spokesperson said drinking water supplies in the Decatur area were not impacted and the monitoring well in question was plugged. “We The total tab came to $414.4

Ocean-based sequestration heats ups

GreenBiz

And a newer option, soil carbon, also is generating investment from multiple corporate sectors. Yet another natural sink absorbs about as much carbon dioxide as our planet’s soils and forests combined: the world’s coastal and ocean waters. Oceans & Fisheries. So you can get at least 1,000 years of sequestration.

Inside the University of Chicago’s controversial solar geoengineering initiative

Grist

Solar geoengineering, for example, does nothing to ameliorate ocean acidification, which occurs when the ocean absorbs carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. It is part of a broader university effort to become a global leader in the climate and energy space. Even in best-case scenarios, it would be only a partial stopgap.
