If you followed developments at the recent COP26 climate talks in Glasgow, you'll know that rapid action is needed to avert the worst impacts of climate change.
Deployment of the climate technology, carbon capture and storage (CCS), has been far too slow over the past decade to reach Paris Agreement targets, new research shows.
On the first day of the UN COP26 climate talks, Professor Stuart Haszeldine (SCCS Director, University of Edinburgh) was invited by the BBC's Christian Fraser to explain the role of carbon capture and storage in global climate action, the research and development that is supporting its delivery and the policy mechanisms that are needed to get CCS operating at the scale required.
New research from the Universities of Oxford and Edinburgh has demonstrated a simple, affordable, and rapid method to prevent fossil fuels from causing global warming.

The UK Government has announced its choice of the East Coast Cluster and HyNet North West to develop as the UK’s first Carbon Capture, Usage and Storage (CCUS) clusters by the mid-2020s. The Scottish Cluster has been named as a reserve project.
