• Get 20% off a year’s Patreon support for The Bunker. The perfect gift to ask for! Carbon capture is a highly controversial technology – but that hasn’t stopped governments ploughing huge sums of money into it. How does it work – and how effective is it?

Ros Taylor is joined by Steve Smith, executive director of Oxford Net Zero, to discuss. • We are sponsored by Indeed.
