Climate in Numbers – pseudo debate about CCUS?

Many oil and gas countries dream of continuing the use of fossil fuels and capturing and storing the resulting CO2 or using it for industrial purposes. Japan, the host of the G7 summit starting on May 19, is also relying on carbon capture (utilization) and storage (CCUS) – including in the energy sector and not just for hard-to-avoid emissions such as in the cement or steel industry. And COP28 President Sultan Al Jaber is counting on the technology to allow him to continue extracting fossil fuels. He just wants to „get out of emissions.“
