f Reducing CO2 Emissions by Making Cheaper CO2 Capture Technologies Available

The Royal Dutch Shell Group (Shell)1 was one of the first<br>energy companies to acknowledge the threat of climate change<br>- to call for action by governments; our industry and energy<br>users; and to take action ourselves. Shell’s strategy: to expand<br>our alternative energies portfolio, while investing in advanced<br>CO2 solutions in order to improve our ability to manage<br>emissions from our hydrocarbon business. Measures to<br>manage future emissions will include developing new<br>technologies to capture and store CO2 underground. The<br>pursuit of Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) technologies<br>allows Shell to play an important and leading role towards<br>addressing the need for an increasing worldwide demand for<br>energy, while at the same time dealing with the need to reduce<br>global emissions.
