HAWESVILLE — Beside a cow pasture in Hancock County, scientists are drilling through 8,000 feet of rock, hoping to learn how to lock away forever an invisible gas that threatens Earth's climate and our way of life.

Science fiction? No, but it's a science experiment that, if it works, would be carried out on a scale never before seen.

The idea is to capture the carbon dioxide, or CO², that spews into the air when coal is burned to produce electricity. The gas, which also is produced naturally, is one of the causes of global warming.

Some of the 50 tour participants walked near the drilling rig as they toured the 8,300-foot-deep carbon dioxide test well near Hawesville, Ky., Thursday, May 14, 2009. The well is being drilled to test storing carbon dioxide deep underground to lessen the impact of global climate change. The tour today was for state and energy industry officials.
