Proceeding contribution from Martin Horwood (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 24 February 2010. It occurred during Debate on bill on Energy Bill.
Energy Bill
The hon. Gentleman raises an important issue. Does he accept, however, that there is plenty of scientific evidence that there is trillions of tonnes-worth of storage capacity around the world in various geological formations, which is a very safe way to store CO2, in contrast to something such as radioactive nuclear waste, because in time it is absorbed by the rocks and aquifers?
