Besides thickening and hardening of the skin, scleroderma can cause skin to lose elasticity and become shiny as it stretches across bones. Other symptoms include: 1  Numbness, pain or color changes in fingers, toes, cheeks, nose and ears, often brought on by cold or emotional distress.
Schematic showing both terrestrial and geological sequestration of carbon dioxide emissions from a coal-fired plant. Carbon sequestration is the process involved in carbon capture and the long-term storage of atmospheric carbon dioxide. Carbon sequestration describes long-term storage of carbon dioxide or other forms of carbon to either mitigate or defer global warming and avoid dangerous climate change. It has been proposed as a way to slow the atmospheric and marine accumulation of greenhouse gases, which are released by burning fossil fuels.
Learn more about the proposed standards. Carbon dioxide (CO 2) capture and sequestration (CCS) is a set of technologies that can greatly reduce CO 2 emissions from new and existing coal-and gas-fired power plants and large industrial sources.CCS is a three-step process that includes:1  Capture of CO 2 from power plants or industrial processes. 2  Transport of the captured and compressed CO 2 (usually in pipelines). 3  Underground injection and geologic sequestration (also referred to as storage) of the CO 2 into deep underground rock formations.earn more about the proposed standards.
