Learn about the current energy storage climate at MIT. CCUS addresses a major weakness of fossil fuels by reducing their carbon dioxide emissions to near zero.

Phil Duffy will present the case for why it is important to pay attention to carbon dioxide reduction in the atmosphere through forestry and other means. Leading MIT researcher, Howard Hezrog will follow the presentation with a discussion of his research on carbon sequestration.
While there is a large focus on reducing GHG emissions, there is also discussion about managing actual GHG levels in the atmosphere.
