Subsea Volcanoes Could Be The Key To Reaching Net-Zero
<p>We are living through the carbon capture boom. Literally billions of dollars of funding are flowing into countless carbon capture technology startups, all with hopes of holding back the looming climate apocalypse. There is only one problem. Where on Earth do we store it? And how do we make sure this planet-wrecking gas stays locked away? Well, <a href="https://pubs.geoscienceworld.org/gsa/geology/article-abstract/doi/10.1130/G50965.1/623410/In-situ-carbon-storage-potential-in-a-buried?redirectedFrom=fulltext" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">new research</a> suggests that extinct subsea volcanoes can safely and securely hold billions of tonnes of carbon dioxide practically indefinitely. This discovery opens up the possibility of being able to stop, or even reverse, climate change through carbon capture, as there are literally thousands of these volcanoes around the world. But how can a volcano store carbon dioxide? And is this really the climate solution we have been looking for?</p>
