Energy
is a problem, but also a necessity that leads to pollution,
|
|
|
|
namely
CO2 emissions. We cannot stop using fossil fuel due to
|
|
|
economic
reasons, so we must contain and dispose of the CO2 to
|
|
achieve
a zero emission state.
|
|
|
| • |
Only
14% of energy used is from renewable sources.
|
|
|
| • |
Use of fossil fuels releases 6.5 billion tons of CO2 per
year that
|
|
|
|
|
cannot
all be absorbed into carbon sinks.
|
|
|
| • |
We
must
|
|
|
|
– |
achieve zero CO2 emission energy production
|
|
|
|
|
|
– |
pull current high levels of CO2 out of the atmosphere
