Lol it was always a lie, just like “clean coal technology.”
The capitalists will always use the crises they cause to part you with more of your capital. They’re just the evolution of ye olde traveling snake oil salesman that used their grift to become the world’s owners.
And because so many poor, deluded peasants truly, darkly, hilariously believe capitalism can solve the problems capitalism propagates, we’re going to be pumping carbon shit into the air until the capitalists have no more surface peasants left alive to bark orders at from their temperature controlled bunker compounds.
And even then, the owners will somehow still blame the corpses for not implementing their orders correctly or something.
There is existing, and there is being effective for the advertised job. Carbon capture certainly exists in different forms and makes sense as an addon to an existing emitter. It’s hyped to be a lot more than what it does, even used to excuse more emissions growth, and that’s the snake oil being talked about. In the end the only true “solution” is to reduce the actual production of emissions, something that the overall world is not will to do. And I put solution in quotes because we’re decades behind on action that would be meaningful, having exponentially increased the pollution since then. We’d have to do far more than just stop emissions to fix anything.
Sure. There isn’t a question of need, but of the math. Unfortunately the 2nd Law is a bit of a stickler. Far easier to get energy and release CO2 than to get the CO2 back into one place.

Which is exactly why we need carbon capture more than ever.
