By prohibiting solar geoengineering experiments, Mexico sets a global example of precaution
By Laura Dunn, Editor of Geoengineering Monitor The Mexican government recently announced that it will not permit solar geoengineering experiments and will go so far as to stop geoengineering experiments in the country, if necessary. This decision followed two...
The current state of CCS in the US after 100 years of CO2 capture and 25 years of extensive federal funding
By Anja Chalmin In the United States, CO2 has been captured for more than 100 years and CO2 capture combined with "storage" has been heavily funded by the US-DOE for 25 years. CCS (Carbon Capture and Storage) refers to the capture of CO2 emissions from power plants or...
