Carbon capture and sequestration have often been considered technologies of last resort. As emissions keep rising and global carbon budgets decline, it is becoming increasingly apparent that if we are to stave off the worst of climate change we must deploy and scale these desperate remedies as quickly as possible.

A group of exciting start-ups are exploring whether the world's trash mountains could become a valuable source of low carbon hydrogen fuels. Still, there is potential for clean - low- or zero-carbon - hydrogen to take off, energy experts believe. One novel spin on emerging hydrogen fuel options is "clean hydrogen" made from trash.
