Denmark moves forward with project to bulk store carbon dioxide in former undersea oil fields

Never underestimate the ambitions of small countries like Denmark! 😇

A proof of concept would be nice to demonstrate that humanity is capable of reducing atmospheric carbon dioxide at any time and any amount.

On the other hand, this project ought to be a reminder of the ingenious gentlemen Don Quixote attacking wind mills. Carbon dioxide is a life essential trace gas in the atmosphere contributing to the greening and generally beneficial warming of our planet.

Denmark reverses the direction of an oil rig for bulk carbon storage Denmark is moving forward with Project Greensands, an initiative that will take huge quantities of captured carbon out to an oil rig in the North Sea, and pump it down to sequester it in the sandstone formations that once held oil and gas.

Project Greensands will capture and liquefy industrial carbon emissions, then ship that carbon out to sea and pump it into old oil fields to refill them
