  • The problem is it’s extremely energy intensive. The math just doesn’t work. IIRC, we currently have three big “carbon capture” plants operating to try and remove CO2 from the atmosphere. (As opposed to the carbon capture they do in things like concrete plants.) Those plants are operating at a fraction the efficiency they expected. Age even if they did work, we’d need to open a new plant like those every single day for a decade before we could capture just the emissions we’re putting out right now.

    It’s not gonna work.
