  The quest for carbon capture and storage is a fruitless one. Actually it's an impossibility. It is very telling that the government have put forward a £1 billion prize for anyone who can do it.
  If, and it's the biggest if since the word if was invented, someone could invent a solution it would mean using the same amount of fuel again to achieve this pointless aim.
  Secondly, and it's a giant secondly, to all those opposed to fracking remember that the principle of carbon capture and storage is to sequestrate the carbon dioxide from the burning process and inject it into the rock under, say the nearest seabed.
  So all those bedwetting themselves because of the fear of monstrous earth tremors due to fracking remember it's the same engineering principle but with two barn door holes in its inception.
  The first being that with fracking for shale gas at least we gain energy for our needs.
  The other being that CCS earns you nothing but brownie points from greenies if that's possible.
  Utterly pointless, expensive and think of the planet if, wooooooooooo, some of that evil CO2 leaks out from the seabed.
  We'd all be doomed I tell yer, doomed.
