Immense additional fossil fuel extraction and rising climate-relevant emissions from geoengineering projects in Asia
By Anja Chalmin Introduction In Asia, the number of new and planned carbon capture and storage (CCS) projects has increased rapidly in recent years. The captured CO2 is mostly used for enhanced oil recovery (EOR) or enhanced gas recovery (EGR). EOR...
