Just have a Think - Bio-Energy with Carbon Capture and Storage (BECCS), 27012019

BECCS (Bio-Energy with Carbon Capture and Storage) is a technology that the IPCC has factored into their climate modelling. If it is to have the effect of keeping their models to well below 2oC of warming compared to pre-industrial levels then it will need to be implemented on a vast scale around the globe. This video takes a snapshot of scientific and journalistic analysis of this controversial proposal
