“Carbon removal sits among CCS, fossil hydrogen, geoengineering and synthetic fuels as technologies that inherently skew towards being used nefariously, by bad actors seeking to feign action while creating destruction. Yet it gets treated as if it’s as neutral as wind and solar. That isn’t true, and we’re seeing that play out in the worst possible way.”

Attached: 1 image G'day everyone, here's a brand new post for you to enjoy - about why it's really bad that carbon removal - a technology that was always vulnerable to becoming a tool for climate delay - is showing all the early signs of joining technologies like CCS, fossil hydrogen and synthetic fuels in doing more harm than good. Namely: the rapid proliferation of fossil fuel partnerships in the very very explicit context of enabling ongoing emissions, alongside the indiscriminate sale of carbon credits to whoever, and for whatever purpose. So many technologies that end up as greenwashing cudgels do have some narrow, important applications - but this gets absolutely buried underneath a tsunami of bad-faith, climate-delaying rhetoric. Have a read - it's an interesting space and I've been chipping away at this piece in my free time for a few weeks now. If you enjoy it, please share! https://ketanjoshi.co/2023/09/03/carbon-removals-default-destiny-is-playing-out-as-expected-but-it-can-be-changed/
