520 8  The burning of fossil fuels releases carbon dioxide (CO2),
       and these CO2 emissions are a major driver of climate 
       change. Carbon capture offers a path to climate change 
       mitigation that has received relatively little attention. 
       In this volume in the MIT Press Essential Knowledge series,
       Howard Herzog offers a concise guide to carbon capture, 
       covering basic information as well as the larger context 
       of climate technology and policy. Carbon capture, or 
       carbon dioxide capture and storage (CCS), refers to a 
       suite of technologies that reduce CO2 emissions by 
       "capturing" CO2 before it is released into the atmosphere 
       and then transporting it to where it will be stored or 
       used. It is the only climate change mitigation technique 
       that deals directly with fossil fuels rather than 
       providing alternatives to them. Herzog, a pioneer in 
       carbon capture research, begins by discussing the 
       fundamentals of climate change and how carbon capture can 
       be one of the solutions. He explains capture and storage 
       technologies, including chemical scrubbing and the 
       injection of CO2 deep underground. He reports on current 
       efforts to deploy CCS at factories and power plants and 
       attempts to capture CO2 from the air itself. Finally, he 
       explores the policies and politics in play around CCS and 
       argues for elevating carbon capture in the policy agenda.
