| On the Cover | Carbon capture and storage (CCS) technology: is it our salvation, a slippery slope, or something in between? As global climate change looms ever larger on the scientific and public radar, the answer to this question is becoming more pressing. The Focus and Spheres of Influence articles examine two sides of whether the science behind CCS is as solid as some hope.
