Abstract

Climate change, which is linked with fossil fuel combustion related Carbon Dioxide (CO2) emissions, is one of the major environmental problems that our society will be facing in the coming decades. Carbon capture and sequestration (CCS) methods coupled with CO2 reuse is a way to mitigate CO2 emissions. This research has two concurrent goals. First, the researcher will review current companies reusing CO2 collected via carbon capture technology to see how the CO2 reuse company landscape has changed since The Global CCS Institute’s 2011 report. The second portion of this report is the community engagement phase. The goal of this research is to assess a sample of subjects both on their current knowledge of carbon capture, sequestration (CCS) and reuse, and on their capacity to increase their understanding of this topic after viewing a short presentation.
