Carbon capture is a technology designed to reduce the amount of carbon dioxide (CO2) released into the atmosphere. It works by capturing CO2 emissions from sources like power plants and industrial facilities before they can escape into the air. The captured CO2 can then be stored underground or used in various applications, such as creating synthetic fuels. This process is important for combating climate change, as CO2 is a major greenhouse gas contributing to global warming. By capturing and storing CO2, we can help mitigate its impact on the environment and work towards a more sustainable future.
