Carbon Capture and Sequestration : Removing the Legal and Regulatory Barriers.

The United States produces over seventy percent of all its electricity from fossil fuels and nearly & amp;nbsp;fifty percent & amp;nbsp;from coal alone. Worldwide, forty-one percent of all electricity is generated from coal, making it the single most important fuel source for electricity gen...
