Welcome back to Your Planet, a podcast series brought to you in association with The Conversation, that delves into solutions for addressing climate change.
We explore and analyse some of the solutions that are being proposed to make out planet's future more sustainable. Do they all work? Or are some offering false hope? In this episode we take a look at carbon capture and storage (CCS), a big focus of the UN's COP28 climate talks.
The UN's Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) says the existing fossil fuel infrastructure will push the world beyond the desired limit of 1.5 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels. Oil producers have been throwing their weight behind carbon capture as a solution. But some climate experts warn that this technology alone would be insufficient to tackle global warming.
With little investment and few projects in operation around the world so far, carbon capture is currently nowhere near the scale needed to make a difference in global emissions.
Once you have listened to our podcast, if you want to learn more about soil carbon projects you can find an article written especially for our podcast by Remi Cardinael and Armwell Shumba in Zimbabwe and Vira Leng in Cambodia.
