Put It Back

Thank you for finding our “Put-It-Back” initiative at the Gulf Coast Carbon Center and for your interest. As a team of Scientists and Engineers at the Texas’ Geological Survey, known as the Bureau of Economic Geology, we would like to share important information about carbon capture and storage (CCS) with you.

Carbon dioxide (CO₂) in Earth’s atmosphere has significantly increased due to industrial processes. Increasing concentrations of CO₂ gas in Earth’s atmosphere will have long-term negative impacts to our oceans and climate.

One possible response is to capture CO₂ in industrial settings, reinject it into deep geological reservoirs where this CO₂ will be retained permanently. This process is called geological sequestration, carbon capture and storage (CCS), or carbon storage. We must act now!
