Description
Summary:Le stockage du CO2 au service de la lutte contre le changement climatique Do s s i e r THE CHALLENGE OF CO2 GEOLOGICAL STORAGE Over the last fifteen years the storage of carbon dioxide (CO2) in deep geological formations has been considered with increasing attention as one of the major solutions to con-tribute to the struggle against anthropogenic climate change and ocean acidification. Predicting the part it could play dur-ing the 21st century is still a matter of discussion, and should remain so as it depends on many parameters which are poorly known. A stabilization target of concentration of greenhouse gases at 535-590 ppmv eq-CO2 in the atmos-phere (i.e., 440-485 ppmv CO2), a value which represents approximately two times its pre-industrial concentration, should be compatible with a 2.8 to 3.2°C (best estimate)
