The Power of the People: Public Acceptance of Carbon Capture and Storage


Event Description

Manuel Llorca, Associate Professor at CSEI (moderator)
Nina Skaarup, Head of Department of Geophysics and Sedimentary Basins at GEUS – Geological Survey of Denmark and Greenland
Jakob Ladenburg, Professor at DTU
 
Imagine a world where carbon emissions are captured before they escape into the atmosphere, where we can mitigate climate change by storing carbon dioxide deep underground. This vision is not science fiction—it’s the promise of carbon capture and storage (CCS) technology. CCS was a core element of many agreements at this year’s COP summit, and many politicians believe it is crucial to achieving our climate goals.

But how do communities feel about CCS? Do they welcome it or resist it? The answers lie in the intricate web of public acceptance. Just as with solar panels, windmills, and nuclear power plants, CCS faces a delicate dance with public opinion.

Join us for an enlightening discussion on the challenges and opportunities of CCS acceptance. Listen to Jakub Ladenburg, Nina Skaarup, and Manuel Llorca delve into the social and human aspects of this groundbreaking technology. You will also hear about the public acceptance of geological storage, where carbon is locked away deep under the sea floor. Don't miss this chance to explore the power of the people and how to harness it for a greener future. Register now and join us for a glimpse into an important part of any energy project!
