  • The authors contend that the U.S. EPA has sufficient evidence to base CO2 emissions standards on carbon capture and sequestration (CCS) technology. They draw a parallel to sulfur dioxide scrubbers, which were rarely used before 1971 but became industry standard after emissions regulations were implemented. The text highlights that while only four U.S. power plants currently use carbon scrubbers, the historical example of sulfur scrubbers shows that regulation can rapidly increase vendor availability, lower costs through 'learning by doing', and significantly increase pollution removal efficiency.
