The project will involve work with partners in the United States, Europe and Japan, to study technologies and power systems to allow carbon dioxide to be extracted from power plants and factory flues so it can be stored geologically.

For a perpetual do-nothing boondoggle.

Mankind's impact is only 0.28% of Total Greenhouse effect

• " There is no dispute at all about the fact that even if punctiliously observed, (the Kyoto Protocol) would have an imperceptible effect on future temperatures -- one-twentieth of a degree by 2050. "

  Professor Emeritus of Environmental Sciences at the University of Virginia,
  and former director of the US Weather Satellite Service;
  in a Sept. 10, 2001 Letter to Editor, Wall Street Journal

Since mankind has been on the face of the Earth, it has not even come close to polluting the Earth as much as one eruption of Mt. St. Helens or Pinatubo has contributed according to geologist who studied the damaging effects to the atmosphere of both eruptions. Now, how many volcanic eruptions were recorded before 1900 and how many have taken place since 1900 especially in the late 1900's, and that will explain why there is more CO2 in the atmosphere now than before. But strangely enough, it appears that vegetation, rather than choking on this increase, are thriving on this increase in CO2 (Carbon Dioxide). WHY? because CO2 to plant life is what O2 (Oxygen) is to animal life. Plants take in CO2 for photosynthesis to produce energy and growth. Latest Space observations of the Antarctic Glaciers from space indicates that the glaciers are actually GROWING IN SIZE, not becoming smaller. I'll try to put these article on this website if & when I can find it again.
