Carbon capture and storage — aka CCS, or sometimes CCUS — is a dangerous delay tactic championed by the fossil fuel industry to continue business as usual while taking resources away from the needed transition to clean, cheaper renewable energy. In fact, in
the United States,<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><a href="https://www.biologicaldiversity.org/campaigns/carbon-capture-and-storage/pdfs/CCS-explainer.pdf" style="color: rgb(5, 99, 193); text-decoration: underline;" class=""><span style="color: rgb(5, 99, 193);" class="">95%
