2021嘉定二模 Whatever happened to the fight of carbon capture? 碳捕获之战到底发生了什么？ Debates have been going on around the subject of carbon capture. Scientists, especially engineers and geologists, have strongly criticized green groups who claimed that carbon capture and storage (CCS) schemes are costly mistakes. 围绕碳捕获的主题一直在进行辩论。 科学家，尤其是工程师和地质学家，强烈批评绿色团体，他们声称碳捕获和封存 (CCS) 计划是代价高昂的错误。 The scientists insisted that such schemes are vital weapons in the battle against global heating. They also warn that failure to set up ways to trap and store carbon would make it impossible to meet the emissions target by 2050. “CCS is going to be the only effective way in the short term to prevent our steel industry, cement manufacture and many other processes from continuing to pour emissions into the atmosphere,” said Professor Stuart Haszeldine, of Edinburgh University. “If we are to have any hope of keeping global temperature increases down below 2 degrees Celsius, we desperately need to develop ways to capture and store carbon dioxide.” 科学家们坚持认为，此类计划是对抗全球变暖的重要武器。 他们还警告说，如果不能建立捕集和储存碳的方法，就不可能实现到 2050 年的排放目标。爱丁堡大学的斯图尔特·海斯泽尔丁 （ Stuart Haszeldine ）教授说，其他过程不会继续向大气中排放排放物。 “如果我们希望将全球温度升高控制在 2 摄氏度以下，我们迫切需要开发捕获和储存二氧化碳的方法。” Green groups claimed CCS would not make “a meaningful contribution to 2050 climate targets”. They say CCS was not a reliable way to decarbonize the energy system and that CCS has a “history of over-promising and under-delivering”. Instead, they urged the construction of more renewable energy plants to be given priority. 绿色团体声称 CCS 不会“对 2050 年气候目标做出有意义的贡献”。 他们表示，CCS 并不是一种可靠的能源系统脱碳方式，而且 CCS 有“过度承诺和交付不足的历史”。 相反，他们敦促优先建设更多可再生能源工厂。 But the claims were dismissed by engineers and geologists. “These claims are quite unfair,” said Michael Stephenson, director at the British Geological Survey. “The technology behind carbon capture and storage is fully mature. It offers us a genuine solution to some of the problems we face in trying to deal with global wanning.” 但工程师和地质学家驳回了这些说法。 “这些说法非常不
