Most scientists agree that global warming is a problem.
You've heard plenty about how a buildup of carbon dioxide in the air is promoting global warming, and how industry might be told to cut back its emissions. It's not a new idea, although it hasn't gotten much public attention in the United States. Lately, however, interest in sequestration has been growing. Secretary Bill Richardson added sequestration to his climate-change strategy last summer. Carbon sequestration could offer one of the best options for reducing the buildup of greenhouse gases, not only in this country but in China, India and elsewhere.
