  • A similar question to the one asking if its safe to store CO2 underground but taking into account how it might effect processes within the Earth: Is there a danger of CCS trapping heat within the Earth and changing the processes that occur within the Earth?

    Volcanic eruptions and earthquakes are governed by the processes within the earth. I would not like to have these processes changed so there are more volcanic eruptions and earthquakes happening. It will probly be hard to moniter how much heat could be trapped within the Earth though. Are there any records that people can get a sence of whats normal for the mantle from?
