To be clear: carbon capture like this is a tiny and expensive part of what needs doing over the next few years
It’s getting a lot of support and publicity in large part because it’s backed by the oil industry, which is trying to create social permission for continued extraction and burning on a much larger scale than the removal.
What do you mean… we have enough resources? We do not have spare energy to throw at this. We are far from a point in time where there is a regular excess in energy and where the low hanging fruits are taken care of.
We also do not have unlimited research capacities. Here too low hanging fruits are clearly more sensible to quickly reduce CO2 emissions.
The goal has to be the fastest possible reduction in CO2 emissions. This will not happen if we choose paths that are less efficient. Like hydrogen cars for example. Those or CCS are good for the fossil industry since they are ideal for greenwashing. This could even result in a net negative effect.
