Hi, I live in a region named Altmark, Saxony-Anhalt, Germany, managing an organic Farm. I studied Farming in Witzenhausen, that belongs to the University of Kassel. In my Region there is the largest Gas field of Northern Germany and it is almost exploited. So there was an interest of Gas de Seuz to use CO2 captured by Vattenfall from a coal-fired plant in Brandenburg for enhanced Gas recovery. The project was said to be an option in making coal based energy better for climate. But there are lots of problems around this: more energy is required, transport and "storge" is dangerous, groudwater-supplies will be affected and if it is used to bring out the rest of the gas, the climate effect is even worse. I´m engaged in a local citizens initiative and we could prohibited some of the planed Experiments, especially the "storage" and pressuring experiments. But now the EU commission plans a pan-european CCS infrastructure (1trillion €), with new Plants and Pipelines. The only way to prohibit this, is to stop this on the european level, otherwise the member states wil have to allow this! So excuse me for using this page against CCS, it is very important to bring this item on an international level, especially, because the fossile stakeholders want to confirm their place in energy supply against the decentrally organized renewables. So I started on AVAAZ a posibility to for Europeans to give a statement to the EU-Plans: http://www.avaaz.org/de/petition/CCSSystem_waere_endgueltiges_Aus_der_Energiewende_Verhindern_wir_gemeinsam_den_Wahnsinn/?launch You can visit our site by this adress: http://www.kein-co2-endlager-altmark.de My area is just south of the "famous" Gorleben, where the a lot of radioacive waste still remains in simple shelters, because there is no "save" option for undergrund-storage.
