Abstract

The article discusses about the regulation of the geological sequestration of Carbon Dioxides. According to the article, as the emissions of greenhouse gases increase and the impacts of climate changes continue to grow, the necessity to have an effective and safe sequestration and capture of carbon dioxide has become even more urgent. It was reported that once a carbon dioxide permeates into the atmosphere of the earth, much of it stays in there for about a century. Due to this, the atmospheric concentration would continue to grow even if emissions of carbon dioxide are stabilized. In order to stabilize them, worldwide emissions must be reduced in a large amount.
