Demonstrating Carbon Sequestration Estimates are that human activity emits 7 billion tons of carbon dioxide a year. One proposed method for reducing how much of the greenhouse gas ends up in the atmosphere is to store the carbon dioxide underground. Natural reservoirs of the gas exist, suggesting that it is feasible. |
