Abstract
The move to a low-carbon future is widely recognized to be crucial in limiting global warming. Decarbonization has become a global imperative and a priority for governments, industries, companies, and society at large, many of whom have publicly declared their intention to become carbon neutral by 2050. Some countries, like the United Kingdom (UK), have even gone as far as to enshrine their commitment to achieve “net zero” emissions in law.

Bibliographical note
ACKNOWLEDGMENTSI wish to thank AAPG for affording me the honor of co-convening their inaugural conference on carbon capture, utilization, and storage. I acknowledge Autumn Haagsma and other members of the technical committee for their support in delivering the meeting, and for their support for the publication of the thematic set arising from the conference. I thank Paula Sillman and Andrea Sharrer for aiding the process of review and revision of the papers that are in the final publication and all the AAPG Bulletin reviewers, who critically evaluated the papers, all of which are better for the scrutiny they received.
