- Technologies to reduce carbon emissions
- Carbon capture and storage
- Capturing CO2 released by FF's and burying it deep underground.
- Expensive due to process and technology.
- the carbon could potentially leak slowly up.
- This must be given high priority as we know FF's will continuously be used.
- Capturing CO2 released by FF's and burying it deep underground.
- Hydrogen fuel cells
- Combine hydrogen and oxygen produce energy, heat and water. will always supply energy as long as oxygen is supplied and does not need to be recharged.
- They are reliable for supplying energy to buildings and transport.
- Challenge is finding a cheap and easy source of H - it does not occur naturally as a gas. (always combined with other elements).
- Can offer a real prospect of reducing carbon emissions.
- Using these would promise much less disturbance to the carbon cycle.
