CO2CRC The CO2CRC is one of the world’s leading collaborative research organisations focussed on carbon dioxide capture and geological storage. More than 110 researchers in Australia and New Zealand are collaborating to develop safe and economical CO 2 geosequestration technologies that will make deep cuts in Australia’s greenhouse gas emissions and, therefore, reduce the potential impact of climate change.
