Carbon capture and storage

Sorry I've been "off air" for a while - I've been trying to get my head around carbon capture and recovery/ storage. This has a special meaning because the local Kingsnorth power station is being put forward for a rebuild and entry into the Governments CCS competition as an experimental carbon recovery and storage site.

The Guardian included a very helpful supplement this week, although it doesn't appear to be available online.

Good to hear this week that the Government are starting to think alternative energy sources but is this really credible or just the usual waffle? I think I know, especially after Gordo spent last weekend groveling in front of the middle-eastern oil producers, asking for oil production to be increased.

Anyway, enough of politics, climate issues, etc. Tonite we watch/ listen to the Singing Loins whilst cruising up the river. Luverlly.
