Abstract
The use of Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) as a climate mitigation tool envisions the permanent underground storage of CO₂. The prospects for large scale adoption of geological storage has raised concerns regarding the risks — of property damage, environmental degradation, and to human health — if stored CO₂ were to leak to the surface or into shallow water resources.
