Geoengineering 101: Carbon Capture and Storage - 1 Desperate Measures Carbon Capture, Carbon capture is rapidly being inserted into Use, and Storage both federal and state legislation, despite the fact that the technology is unproven as a safe CCUS uses CO2 that is removed from way to sequester carbon, and is also inordinate- the atmosphere to make feedstock for ly expensive. [...] The captured CO2 of Big Oil, while the fossil fuel industry continues ends up being stored in the manufactured to pollute our communities and raise the Earth’s goods. [...] Once you’ve expended huge pointing to even more profit for the industry, with amounts of energy to remove the carbon, you are no end to extraction in sight.1 still stuck with the problem of what to do with it, which brings us back to the inherent issues of Use of captured carbon for EOR defeats the point storage or re-use (see above). [...] BECCS is one of the most extreme – even outlandish – carbon capture proposals.4 Engagement While it may not capture much carbon, it seems Direct Air Capture is being aggressively to have captured the imagination of industry marketed to lawmakers and they are beginning and a number of U. [...] There are no shortcuts! Related to the idea of BECCS is the concept The only way to reduce greenhouse gas of carbon farming, in which growers are emissions as urgently and effectively as we need encouraged to use their farms as carbon offsets to AND tackle the acute environmental justice for polluters.
