The Illinois Senate voted 55-0 on Thursday to prohibit carbon sequestration projects near the Mahomet Aquifer, a critical water source for nearly one million Central Illinois residents. The move comes after years of warnings from environmental groups and community leaders concerned that underground carbon storage could threaten the region’s drinking water. The aquifer supplies much of McLean County and surrounding areas.

After nearly a decade of talks, countries have struck a global deal that would mandate the shipping sector to curb emissions, covering most of the world’s commercial fleet. Starting in 2028, shipowners must adopt cleaner fuels or face fines of up to $380 per ton of CO2 emitted. The agreement, passed Friday at the UN’s International Maritime Organization (IMO), survived last-minute drama after Saudi Arabia demanded a vote and the US exited negotiations.

The UK government has officially given the go-ahead for the Viking onshore pipeline project, a £200 million (~$250 million) development designed to support massive carbon capture initiatives off the Lincolnshire coast. Stretching 34 miles underground, the new pipeline will transport dense-phase CO2 from Immingham to the Theddlethorpe Gas Terminal. From there, the CO2 will be transferred offshore for long-term storage in the Viking gas fields located beneath the North Sea.
