The article puts it up as a question about whether this practice is worthwhile since the only logical solution to climate change is to de-carbonize. Personally I think that question isn’t very nuanced, certainly de-carbonizing 100’a of tons from the atmosphere from just this one plant is a small net positive. Can’t let it be an excuse to keep rolling coal in your F750’a but I’m still in favor of sucking as much carbon out of the air as we can.
The problem here is that ‘trying’ means funneling money to for-profit companies that aren’t actually going to solve the issue.
It’s very important that people like you believe their bullshit without a second thought because it makes them more money with less effort.
