Description: The UBA position paper assesses the usefullness of carbon capture and storage ( CCS for short) as a climate protection instrument. It describes guidelines for sustainable use, as well as the necessary monitoring and risk prevention. The effects of CCS on human health and the environment are also considered. According to the paper, CCS cannot replace greenhouse gas reductions and the rapid phase-out of fossil fuels. CCS must also not lead to perpetuate fossil energy supply structures and hinder the expansion of renewable energies. The UBA therefore proposes that the technology should first be tested in waste incineration plants where heat and electricity are generated from non-recyclable waste, but where CO2 is also produced.
