But carbon capture and storage, or CCS, could be used more often in a rather counterintuitive way: To produce crude oil, which releases its own CO2 emissions when it's burned, helping drive climate change. Here's the twist: Experts say producing more oil using CO2 captured from coal-fired power plants may actually...
