"...The environmental law charity points out Shell’s Quest facility – a much smaller carbon capture project – underwent a joint federal and provincial environmental impact assessment in 2010. The Pathways Alliance’s proposed project would capture roughly nine times more carbon dioxide than Quest and require a pipeline network seven times longer. The request noted a CCS project of this magnitude introduces a suite of impacts: increased water consumption would put pressure on the watershed, natural gas will likely be used to power CCS equipment and contribute to pollution and greenhouse gas emissions, CO2 becomes explosive when compressed for transport and CO2 leaks are difficult to detect and dangerous..."
