Yet thirty years later, the Earth Summit's "new blueprint for international action" on environmental issues had not stabilized the climate by stopping the increase of long-lived greenhouse-gas concentrations. In 2022, the United Nations stated, "carbon capture, use and storage (CCUS) can play a significant role in mitigating carbon emissions." Some climate experts considered CCUS necessary for reaching net-zero Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Others thought its technology and infrastructure were so nascent, CCUS was unlikely to make a difference. Had decades-old pledges to stop fossil fuel use been replaced by efforts to capture fossil emissions?
