Reply #18: And (naturally) the IPCC is on the take as well. (Right?)

Climate Change 2007: Working Group III: Mitigation of Climate Change

4.3.6 Carbon dioxide capture and storage (CCS)

The potential to separate CO₂ from point sources, transport it and store it in isolation from the atmosphere was covered in an IPCC Special Report (IPCC, 2005). Uncertainties relate to proving the technologies, anticipating environmental impacts and how governments should incentivise uptake, possibly by regulation (OECD/IEA, 2005) or by carbon charges, setting a price on carbon emissions. Capture of CO₂ can best be applied to large carbon point sources including coal-, gas- or biomass-fired electric power-generation or cogeneration (CHP) facilities, major energy-using industries, synthetic fuel plants, natural gas fields and chemical facilities for producing hydrogen, ammonia, cement and coke. Potential storage methods include injection into underground geological formations, in the deep ocean or industrial fixation as inorganic carbonates (http://www.ipcc.ch/publications_and_data/ar4/wg3/en/figure-4-22.html">Figure 4.22). Application of CCS for biomass sources (such as when co-fired with coal) could result in the net removal of CO₂ from the atmosphere.

But, then, any "climate change skeptic" could have told me the IPCC is on the take...
