DNAIndia: Carbon dioxide is a key factor in global warming, and experts have long called for innovative "carbon capture and storage" (CCS) solutions.
Scientists have turned carbon dioxide into stone in a matter of months by pumping it deep underground, offering a revolutionary new way of storing the greenhouse gas to tackle climate change. The pioneering experiment in Iceland mixed CO2 emissions with water and pumped it hundreds of metres (feet) underground into volcanic basalt rock -- where it rapidly...
