What Climate Science Really Says About Carbon Capture
Carbon capture, use, and storage (CCUS) projects have been on the rise in recent years, opening the door for new industries, good-paying jobs, and important climate solutions. But do we really need CCUS to help solve the climate crisis? And can it be compatible with efforts to promote environmental justice?
Third Way, Clean Air Task Force, World Resources Institute, National Wildlife Federation, and Carbon180 invite you to hear from leading contributors to IPCC reports and a panel of experts to discuss these topics and more!
