How will we reduce Australias greenhouse gas emissions?
Simple. We lock it 2 kilometres underground, therefore removing it from our atmostphere.

Australia, more specifically south-west Victoria, is the proud new owner its first carbon storage plant which will bury 100,000 tonnes of carbon dioxide in the ground.

Phil Freeman from the conservation foundation says Australia should focus on alternative power, not burying the problem.
“That means renewable energy and cutting our huge amounts of energy waste,” he said.

However, The Federal Government argues carbon capture is one part of a bigger solution.

What is your opinion on the matter?
