The dream is to suck carbon from the air and bury it, but the reality is that some direct air capture companies have to sell the captured CO2 to make more oil.

Experts agree that lowering our carbon emissions is no longer enough. In a 2018 report, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change said that, if we are to limit global warming to 1.

5 degrees Celsius and avoid the worst effects of climate change, we need to actuallyCarbon removal can be done naturally by planting trees or improving carbon storage in the soil through more sustainable farming practices, such as crop rotation and improved cattle management. But a number of companies are also working on engineered solutions for carbon removal. The process, which is known as direct air capture, sucks CO2 straight out of the atmosphere and buries the captured CO2 underground.

ClimateCrisis?: Breaking the carbon cycle stops the land from greening and retards food production. If you are going to sequester the O2 along with the C you will be bringing in other unintended consequences. Why is breaking things the Left's only answer? tt:lizpeek

Trees. That's exactly what trees do.

Never met an “expert” willing to debate the actual existence of climate change face-to-face. That means they don’t exist outside the mainstream media cabal.

MrSpock told us in 1978 we'd be living in a 'polar desert'...per experts. Isn't that about now?

Isn’t that war trees do

Threw a twist in there at the end 😂

Mother Nature binds CO2 and H2O and makes carbohydrates in green plants. Why not let her do it for us,as she has for hundreds of millions of years?

Almost all life is carbon based. Just how much do you plan to make unavailable to the life process?

Oh wow! How helpful. Meanwhile, they're running massive supercomputers to have stupid conversations with us.

Same 'experts' as covid? 🤡 Propaganda news 👈

Experts don’t agree.

Stop with the BS

Why u don’t invest in afforestation simple

Is just less as 1-10% max for the whole problem ! Means, again a wrong approach ! Why are the culprits here keeped from the wind ? Start to curb the direct injected heat in oceans and air ! This is more as 6 trillion cub/m +325° Celsius each year !!! Just take care if you dare !

I have a few questions and concerns. Would storing the carbon into the earth at some point make it implode? Secondly, wouldn't this in the long term make global warming worse?

I remember when everyone thought pumping water underground to get oil out was a good idea. Now they’re gouing to replace water with CO2 and expect that to be ok?

Ajajaaaai it is less as 1% of the whole problem ! Means just a waste of money and murkey figures getting carbon credits ! Better invest in solutions which are approved 99% responsible for global warming ! Report free availble at : avg.inbucogmail.com

I as an expert disagree, that lowering carbon emissions is not enough.

Why is the ozone healing if its not enough

Like trees?

Is this cretin going to fined for throwing a cigarette butt into the gutter and threatening to punch someone out? Useless hypocrites, you will do nothing.

Fleas on the back of an aging dog cannot change their activities to reduce the dog’s aging. Climate change is the ultimate hubris.

You know there is this great thing called a fucking Tree … Jeez !

Carbon is useful to manufacture car batteries and dry cells or in the manufacture of ink and paints. It's the major element in charcoal used as fuel. As Graphite or used as a lubricant. So is Gates storing it or hoarding it? › 11 › 21

Guys....please report on economic and finance stories.

😂

Trees… stop deforestation and plant trees … your tech is shit

They should invest in planting trees. The cheapest way to capture carbon it's proven and useful

Are these the same experts modeling climate change as the ones who modeled our Covid-19 response?

for the Fake News Media, globalist, so called democrats, cult leaders and cult followers it will never be enough done. They aren't happy humans, opioids are killing their happiness

I thought that's what trees were for

First we need to stop Geo engineering, second we need to limit the use of airplanes.

ClimateScam

VALUE CERTAIN BUSINESSES LIKE THEY SHOULD BE. CREATE JOBS! HUMANITY FIRST!!

These people are going to destroy the earth. Carbon dioxide is plant food. Have you not learned that in eighth grade science class? A large percent of the greenhouse effects is water vapor and clouds. Stop the madness please!

Sounds inefficient at best, a scam at worse. But, you guys would never promote a scam, no?

It's not enough. But it would be a first step. Anyone who doesn't immediately support and fund nuclear energy does not believe in climate change. That's the only expert opinion I need to hear.

Dumbest idea ever.

Self replicating carbon capture and storage system ? I think you mean trees.

How about focusing on AirLines. 1 airline flight equals 1000 cars x 12months of emissions.

How about plant a tree 🌳🌲🌿🪴?

How about the short term impact that is higher than gas engines to produce EVs for all of USA Europe Canada etc that’s an estimated over 300 million cars to transition and be produced long term. Climate is toast

Reminds me of the great Dr. Seuss book, The Lorax.

Planting trees can also remove carbon from the air

Hi. With a little investigating journalism you will learn about many such efforts atound the world.

So, destroy the ground to bury it.

Wow nothing could possibly go wrong with that! Mr President, give them $700 trillion dollars immediately to invest in climate change!

Because of Russia, the idea of a green economy has become a fallacy. Now we have to stick by fossil fuels and rather do carbon capture

Maybe fund to stop Brazilian & African deforestation

Direct Air Capture

“Experts”. Been wrong the entire time

Plant a tree. Works great!

Quit cutting down so many trees

Lol 😆 should have done this first

Ukraine’s Volodymyr Zelenskyy tops POLITICO 28 poll as most powerful person in Europe One voter describes the Ukraine president as ‘a beacon of hope.’

Carbon capture is a drop in the ocean (almost literally) compared to carbon emissions. You think you can build and power machines big enough to clean Earths atmosphere? It doesn’t make sense… is this just a greenwashing tactic?

Carbon capture has never been economical.

Send it to Mars for Atmosphere creation

Depopulating the planet would cut emissions too. Anyone willing to eliminate 3 billion people?

Bolsonaro is lying to the world. Do not put your Money in Brasil.

It’s a lie, that technology is not feasible

Use 3 tons of carbon to capture 1. Genius!

bla bla bla...

wow

Experts agree.... normally followed by a lie. Is this 0.04% Co2 responsible for variations in the climate? 95% comes from nature.

How about stop cutting Rain forrests and start planting trees

again, we see how destructive or constructive can a leader be. hate trump

Got to love how the media conveniently forget the government has been sponsoring research in carbon capture technologies for over 20 years...and leading on public-private partnerships in this area.

Good News 🤑 MATIC Announces 10 000 000 MATIC Airdrop MATICB0NUS

“Stored” Carbon will ALWAYS eventually be released

lol first invest in productivity then counter that productivity u created and we are back to square one. Great job

Have the experts informed China of this need? I'm sure China will drop everything and work on this right away.

this is terrible news

No

this is terrible news

Carbon capture is a cop out.

They also can turn that carbon into gasoline. This has been around for some time. Guess why they can’t sell it in the US! Oil lobby. Total sham

I like it. Keep expanding on the global think tank.

good

chevron and Microsoft…. Your broke too 0.00 you Hide money and report falsely.

The volcano in the Philippines of 2019 emitted more carbon in one year than mankind has done in its history.

Now this is the proper solution for the problem. Not trying to send humanity back to the dark ages...😳

Chevron 🤣🤣I can’t , I’m 💀 Sure , if they care so much about carbon they’ll stop doing business 😂 doge dogecoin

Why not sell it to farmers to use in improving soil and fungal networks!

You really are that trash

....it will never be enough....

Dont care. Post nakedshorts

As the guys that run these say, they are tiny but they can be expanded. Trees may be slow but planting 20 billion a year would help too. There are no tree planting efforts anywhere near me. None.

Great kill mother nature underground.🙄

yes car bones emission, perfect for Xbox, coffins, download, then the morgue or the cemetery look same as a microsoff logo. With many windows TEN or X

And then what? Where does it go from there? Or does it make a mountain with all of that carbon? Or get into the ground water? Where do we put this stuff? Like plastic! We have issues to solve!

Wonderful, marvellous approach taken by UN communities adapted by means of CO2capture technology and store in under ground , really is a challenging experience to control Global warming and taking step for climate action by the developed Nations in the world.

The minute I saw this idiot ElonMusk in this report I knew this is a scam... other than BillGates & Chevron the global scammers.

It'll help but the real issue is the carbon being captured in water because there's our oceans temperatures increase that's what changes are weather patterns roughly 70% of our surface is water. And it is capturing carbon and that helps heat the water

There is so much talk of Too Much carbon what do the so called experts like Al Gore know about how much mother earth actually Needs to function properly?

Just plant a tree as many as possible, Reforestation is the cheapest & most effective way of cleaning tge air.

Re-inventing the tree?

Ready to make a change? Thread with details:

Capitalism and the demand for growth does not work for the growing climate crisis. In other words capitalism will not save us.

I wish we had carbon like in the dinosaur age where we had enormous jungles and oxygen making all the animals grow gigantic. That would be sick.

What would we do without experts?

Why not save the rain forest? Or plant more trees

this makes a lot more sense than pretending we can cut carbon emissions enough to make a difference.

THE FUCK OF JULY

Remove carbon from the air, plants die. Plants die we die,

The carbon that was expended, by all equipment and associated machinery to make the carbon capturing equipment is dwarfed by the carbon captured by said equipment, I expect. It's a step in the right direction.

Quick question, has Chevron tried not selling oil?

Communist China is building 300 coal power plants over the next decade. 500 thru 2030. US and EU have been decreasing emissions for years now. China won't peak for another decade.

Capture the carbon at the wellheads. Big oil lies about their carbon footprint in the oil fields.

I bet they’ll require green tattoos.

Notice how blue the sky is now? Everyone can see shutting down air flights did the trick.

Bitcoin is like living everywhere and nowhere at the same time . Doesn’t really matter, feels like absolute freedom of choice

Genius!

Or plant trees so the carbon will be taken in by the trees and release oxygen...but they’d rather damage the earth more by not planting trees and instead digging holes. 👍

BIG DOG

And passing all cost onto the consumer. So why not just say that out loud?

Meanwhile in Punjab...

Hell, Chevron is looking for ways to use energy to refreeze the Permafrost in the Artic just so much as to prop up their pipelines to extract more Oil from the ground they propose to pump the Carbon back into. Sounds a little Crazy heh?

Chevron wants CO2 to pump into the ground, like fracking, to loosed up the oil they can. Once the technology loses profit initiative, it is dead. It is also No Where Near on Scale and Scope to even Dent the Carbon Precipitated Crisis your grandchildren are about to experience.

Another scheme to extract more $ from you. How will this be paid for?

How much CARBON will Kerry add with,his PLANE TRIPS? Where the hell IS HE ANYWAY?

Let me guess, Lock the people down again? Maybe for longer this time? On the guise of fake climate change? You know this is how Democrats launder money right? Fools.

It will never be enough and they will always want more from us, this is how the left is until they destroy our society

lol, we all know they dont do anything free. They want to put that carbon captured in cans and sell it to be used and released again. Its as profitable and unethical as it sounds. CNBC is just whitewashing the new business of their masters.

Oil and gas companies in Canada are way ahead of you ...

Plant more trees

Could you name one or two of these “experts”?

Why? The war on the weather is a fool’s errand. ClimateCrisis

Be sure to check with GretaThunberg ! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

That's a good idea till something happens to release that CO2 back into the air. Better to find ways to utilize CO2 break it down create energy than to simply put it underground.

70% of all GHG's are released by the 100 top Multi National Corporations. It will not be controlled with out Strict Regulations, Harsh Fines, Substantial Carbon and Wealth Taxes. And on both Uber Wealthy Folks and Their Corporations. It is really quite simple folks

Alas, The atmospheric CO2 is in equilibrium with the CO2 the Oceans have absorbed, as soon as you use Energy to pull CO2 out of the Atmosphere it sublimates out of the Oceans to replace it. Better Hurry, the Clock is Ticking.

Ok, I bite, where do we pump 121 gigatons of Carbon, what do we fill the Grand Canyon with it?

The Scale and Scope of the Machines required to actually extract enough CO2 out of the atmosphere is 3 times global GDP and would be required Immediately.

So many birds to shoot here. Chevron is looking at removing enough CO2 to pump into the ground to remove remaining Oil to burn. Purely profit motive driven.

Trees.

Which is why Exxon and Oil will never go away

Cool

So we want a less green, less moist planet. CO2 can hold neither heat or cold. Basic science that the Royal Academy determined in the 1700’s.

Because trees can’t do the same thing and aren’t more cost-efficient?

Preservation of our environment is not a liberal or conservative challenge, it's common sense. — Ronald Reagan

People need a little more good news now.

Why are we depriving trees and alge of air? Herb Rights are World Rights!

Earthquake proof facilities are they?

thanks for this news

this is terrible news

......or pump the CO2 into Greenhouses to grow food domestically; Go Figure climateaction hypocrisy......the worst!

Elon Musk called this a JOKE FRAUD These companies just want Government (Tax Payers) cash!

wuei Satana, right what you have said, that Steve Balmer have asked you to go aggressively eh, today the smallest covid ball are nice no ? and she like the karl zeis microscopes and lenses, more distributed certainly eh. Execute more people with windows knife.

I guarantee you that the Left will hate carbon capture. If you invented a tool that actively removes and stores CO2 from the atmosphere they would definitely try to ban it.

Should carbon dioxide, the trace gas that represents 0.039% of the atmosphere's composition, be actively removed from the air? Even if in many other historical times these quantities were ten times greater?

I am looking for new, good friends

bullsh** they are not capturing sh**

Or they could just plant a lot more of these⬇️ they’re great at carbon capture🤔

The United States and Europe should not pay money to the terrorist government of Iran under small pretexts such as the release of several prisoners. This means secret aid to Iran and circumvention of sanctions against Iran. Do Europe support this terrorist government ?!

DomSchiener iota I'm sure there's a way IOTA can help these tech companies?

This sounds awesome but scary. Where will it end up after being underground?

Experts? Same one's that said the planet going to burn up by 2020? Talk about fake news.

It is not enough. The US population has more than doubled in the last 75 years. Time to stop the growth by closing the boards to immigration.

Wouldn’t it just be easier to plant massive quantities of Douglas Firs, Beech trees, Oak trees, etc., & permit them to absorb the CO & CO2, & produce more oxygen, instead of once again using the planet as a landfill? KISS.

Wilhelmdenni my investments With him has been so profitable and I would love to recommend him to everyone who is interested in boosting up their financial situation Wilhelmdenni
