This Open letter is published in NRC Handelsblad on 2 September 2009. The immediate cause of this action is the discussion in parliament on 3 September of a letter by the ministers Van der Hoeven and Cramer about governmental CCS policy. The signatories of the letter find saving energy and sustainable energy very important but they find CCS just as important as a means to save the climate. Signatories are CEO's of TNO, KEMA, ECN, NUON, E.ON and many other energy companies, representatives of climate and energy platforms and a large number of scientists from various universities.
