Britain Backs Plan to Store Carbon Dioxide Under the Sea
www.nytimes.com
Two proposals in Northern England, led by the energy giants BP and Eni, aim to establish an industry in burying emissions from industrial plants.

This appears to be aimed at subsidizing the construction of a gas-burning power plant, rather than achieving a reduction in net CO2 emissions

    Britain says a lot of shit.

    The fact they are suggesting this is down to Northerners is a new low.

    What’s that, man in Burnley? BP can offset their horrific environmental track record by exporting their harm to the bottom of the sea?

    Sure, that’s a great Idea and we love your ferret and whippet.

      I believe it’s about shoveling money to the oil companies and providing a bit of cover for building a new gas-burning power plant
