Carbon capture and storage (CCS) is the process in which carbon dioxide that is produced during the generation of power and its industrial processes is prevented from being directly emitted into the atmosphere. Instead, it is collected and stored underground or recycled for other purposes. It is a strong mitigation tool that is being used to fight climate change.
