42% of UK population unaware of carbon capture and storageIt would be entertaining to find out what the 58% think it is.
Still, the conclusion is obvious enough: a re-doubling of efforts to proselytize for CCS. The model for such endeavours should be this fake campaign established by the Renewable Energy Association: 'Back Biomass' -
"an industry led and government supported initiative to urge the Government to ‘Back Biomass’ power"Yes, you certainly need a government-backed campaign to urge, errrr, the government ... Anyhow, presumably this non-existent CCS-thingy should get a trade association of its own ? Don't be daft, it already has one ! And - doncha know - it's already an Industry !
"The CCSA is a Business Association formed in the UK to represent major players in Carbon Capture & Storage industry"Not bad for a non-existent thingy. But that elusive 42% still don't know what's what. In addition, then, we urgently need to discard the evidently useless 'Office of CCS' at DECC, and establish a dynamic new government agency to advance the cause of this exciting new
Compo ! your suggestions, please, for the name of the much-needed new CCS agency

Or "FECK AFF" for short?
That one's a bit of a stretch...might need a drink now.
Lovely - it reminds me of the non-farming of the non-sheep. It is also along the lines of the Darwin Awards - those who want to drastically reduce CO2 are sawing off the branch of the tree they are sitting on.
The amateur supporters' group is the Credulous Cretins Society.
The alchemists obviously have a far better PR department.
Jan takes the prize ! A winning combination of name and pun
Hon mention to Kynon (and that long cool drink). Anon might get one, too, but (s)he has to come up with a name to win things around here
I'm honoured!
right to share that with us "" Not bad for a non-existent thingy. But that elusive 42% still don't know what's what. In addition, then, we urgently need to discard the evidently useless 'Office of CCS' at DECC, and establish a dynamic new government agency to advance the cause of this exciting new source of ubsidies technology. Following the model of the new Office of Unconventional Gas and Oil - OffUGO (sic) - it should have a really catchy name, so ...
