    • An illustration of the Sleipner natural gas field in the Norwegian sector of the North Sea which pumps natural gas (green) to the surface and then reinjects excess carbon dioxide (blue) back into porous rocks for burial as part of a plan to slow global warming. The field, the longest-running commercial greenhouse gas burial project in the world, has pumped 10 million tonnes of carbon dioxide into the subsea reservoir since it started in 1996, equivalent to about a fifth of Norway's annual carbon dioxide output.
