OK. So it looks like it will be possible to store CO2 in the porous rock under the North Sea, potentially opening the way for the large-scale application of Carbon Capture and Storage (CSS).
I'm no scientist but I need to ask the question: after the "hundreds of years" that the gas can be safely stored, what happens then?
Is this just another nuclear waste story - store it somewhere until we think of what to do with it in the long term?
Informed answers are welcome.
