"Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, CO
is not poisonous, nor is it explosive, but CO
does have one unpleasant property: if it gets into the atmosphere in large quantities, our climate changes, which is why carbon capture and storage (CCS) technology is an important bridging technology.
In this respect, Mr Hoppenstedt is right; it is a bridge for the next 50 to 80 years. It is not the
but it is one part of the solution to our problems. I think we have found a good compromise, at least in terms of the link to the emission trading scheme. The emission trading scheme guarantees that resources will be made available for CCS, and CCS also guarantees that we shall make headway in reducing CO
and shall be able to achieve our targets.
I think that, alongside efforts by industry to construct this demonstration plant, the Member States need to make an effort to get national legislation transposing this directive under way. Above all, we all need to pursue clarity, for public opinion and for industry, in order to ally people’s fears about CCS. CCS is not a dangerous technology; it is a helpful technology."@en1
