Technology will solve problem with carbon capture24-11-2019 21:04
Climate76 ☆☆☆☆☆ (1)	Many firms are working on the problem, M.I.T. just had a very promising breakthrough. No need to switch to electric cars and renewable energy (and anyways China isn't going to cut emissions), we can just capture the carbon.

Climate 76 wants to eliminate plants and animals from the Earth's surface. Perverse guy! There are three kinds of climate change: that generated by natural factors; that generated by man; and that generated by economic interests.

No need to switch to electric cars and renewable energy (and anyways China isn't going to cut emissions), we can just capture the carbon. The device needs to work with a charging battery. Like what a solar panel or electric vehicle has. Might not be efficient enough for a power plant. Have to wonder what the market for carbon is. This might be more promising. It would supply fuel while it could theoretically be carbon neutral. If their plant uses either solar or wind power, then places with a lot of solar radiation might generate and export fuel.

I just went back and re-read and I see it now. ` Coincidentally, Marxists hate all life on planet earth as well, and they just want to ensure equal misery for all. I wonder if there's any connection here. . I don't think i can [define it].

Just keep it simple, natural. Chlorophyll does all that and more. Plants an photosynthesis does just fine at capturing carbon, and they proved all kinds of useful things. Like food, medicines, textiles, fuel, construction materials, shade, shelter, lubricants. The list is nearly endless, and you don't have to design or build a thing. Of course, it's not about the solution, but raising taxes, to pay for the research/design, and building something unnecessary, and likely useless. The other point would be, that we need to make sure CO2 never, ever drops down near or below 150 ppm. That's where are primary source of food, dies. How would you be able to make sure all these machine get shut off, before the CO2 falls below a critical level? Anyone who benefits from these machines, aren't going to just want to shut them down, and lose those benefits.
