False Promises

As global leaders look to tech advances to solve climate change, one leading idea involves capturing carbon pollution from the air and burying it underground forever. While carbon capture may sound practical, there is no conceivable way it can work.

We hear a lot about carbon capture from the supporters of fossil fuel exploitation, so here's Ben Jennings (Guardian) with a suggestion many of us here would endorse....

Let's do some real carbon capture....

I recommend anyone to read Human Nature by Kate Marvel. While approaches like carbon capture are interesting and we can and should explore those types of options, there’s no getting around the fact that, if we don’t reduce our emissions, we’re no solving the problem.

@jlepawsky With too many critical #TippingPoints being surpassed, #CarbonCapture becomes more and more post de facto, than it's increasingly necessary opposite: #prescient #CRISIS.

And while too much of a major educational upgrade is necessary, in too short of a time frame to match equitable #ClimateCrisis solves; the deepest roots have to be addressed first. #FossilFuels and #TechBros need to be replaced, asap.

EU countries want oil exploration to be classed as a green investment

The proposed changes could see oil giants like TotalEnergies showing up in sustainable investment funds.
