If refined, carbon capture and storage They calculate that that the CCS technology could enable more of these unburnable fossil fuel resources to be unlocked over this century, while still limiting global warming to 2°C. (CCS) technology has the potential to unlock unburnable carbon by capturing 33% of total carbon dioxide emissions produced by fossil fuels. The reduction of emissions to up to 99% would allow continued usage of fossil fuels while remaining within carbon-reduction goals set out in the Paris Agreement , enabling consumption of up to 99% more fossil fuel resources. To meet these goals, researchers must refine the CCS technology with greater government support and higher rates of investment into Imperial technology and storage infrastructure.
