Perspectives and Future Views

Abstract

In this chapter, the discussion of the importance of a change in social behavior that needs to be guided, by the principles developed through the scientific investigation and findings to analyze the environmental threat is presented. The difference in magnitude between emissions (Gton) and utilization (Mton) is a measure of the required efforts for developing solutions. In previous chapters, the basis to claim that there is no universal/single solution to the emissions problem was set. Multiple technologies are required and need to be developed, within a holistic set of criteria. The needs, challenges and existing gaps identified in the CU advances discussed in Chap. 2 are collected in this chapter. Implementation of technologies should take place, by circular integration, within CBMs. A vision of the aspirational (better) future is also offered in this chapter.
