Climate maths 'doesn't add up' without carbon capture: COP28 chief

The Emirati oil chief leading this year’s UN climate talks said Wednesday the world must get “serious” about new emission-capturing technology, rather than focussing only on replacing fossil fuels with renewable energy.

Sultan Al Jaber said renewables such as solar and wind “cannot be the only answer”, especially in the steel, cement and aluminium industries, where emissions are particularly hard to reduce.
