Social acceptability, particularly of geoengineering (and specially subsoil engineering) techniques, is said to cause problems and limit the development of those technologies. Analysing the case of carbon capture and storage (CCS) in Europe, the article shows through the comparison of CCS projects and a press analysis that social acceptability of CCS is limiting its development, but so as political leadership, economic model, and technological maturity. CCS is less massively rejected than it lacks industrial and political leaderships. In fact, this is mostly the absence of a true public debate about this technology in particular, and geoengineering in general, that the analysis of the debates about social acceptability of those instruments to fight climate change unveiled.
