SANTA BARBARA, CA--(Marketwire - September 30, 2008) - Carbon Sciences Inc. (OTCBB : CABN ), the
developer of a breakthrough technology to transform carbon dioxide (CO2)
emissions into gasoline and other fuels, announced today that its website
at www.carbonsciences.com has been revised to provide more information
about its new CO2-to-Fuel technology. Details of the company's innovative
technology to transform CO2 into fuel were unveiled on September 24, 2008
at the First International Summit on Policy, Technology and Investment in
Cambridge, UK.
Derek McLeish, the company's CEO, commented on the new strategic focus on
CO2-to-Fuel technology, "The world is highly dependent on energy and we
consider fuel to be the ultimate high value product for our CO2
transformation technology. The Energy Information Administration projects
that by 2030, global energy consumption will increase by 50%, using over
112 million barrels of crude oil per day and emitting into the atmosphere
over 42 billion tons of CO2 per year. This dual crisis of energy and
climate threatens our way of life, as well as the security of nations."
Mr. McLeish continued, "Successful commercialization of our CO2-to-Fuel
technology will create a business opportunity that dwarfs every other
technology and market segment that we have previously pursued. Transforming
CO2, the harmful byproduct of fossil fuel usage, back into a renewable fuel
to run cars and fly aircraft could have a profound effect on worldwide
energy supply."
Carbon Sciences' technical development efforts are rooted in its innovative
CO2-to-Carbonate technology that transforms CO2 emissions into a high value
product, calcium carbonate. Calcium carbonate is consumed in substantial
quantities by the paper, pharmaceuticals and plastics industries, resulting
in a multi-billon dollar market. The company is currently engaged in
discussions with potential strategic partners regarding licensing and
further co-development efforts of its CO2-to-Carbonate technology.
