carbon sequestration

Disposal of carbon dioxide waste in solid or liquid form. From 1993 energy conglomerates such as Shell, Exxon, and British Coal have been researching ways to reduce their carbon dioxide emissions by developing efficient technologies to trap the gas and store it securely – for example, by burying it or dumping it in the oceans. See also greenhouse effect.
