Norway's Sleipner Project
The Sleipner Project in Norway is an innovative initiative that captures and stores carbon dioxide (CO₂) emissions from industrial sources underground rather than releasing them into the atmosphere. Located beneath the North Sea, it involves injecting CO₂ into deep geological formations where it is securely stored. Starting in 1996, the project aims to reduce greenhouse gases, combat climate change, and demonstrate the feasibility of CCS (carbon capture and storage) technology on a large scale. It serves as a pioneering example of how industries can lower their carbon footprint through responsible management of emissions.
