If anybody should know about Illinois “holes” full of air, it’s Dick Dirtbin.

If those things will hold CO2 I’ll bet they could hold natural gas too, adding to our strategic reserve.

The ISGS received $8.9 million to address the feasibility of a commercial-scale CO2 geologic storage complex

Who knows when we might run out of CO2 and this stored CO2 will come in handy?

WE are fools led by idiots.

Illinois had better spend that money fast. Because I have a feeling that any unspent money will be frozen on January 21, 2017.

If those that truly believe (I don’t) that man causes global warming by putting CO2 into the atmosphere, then the first thing to be called for would be elimination of the catalytic converter on the billions of cars driving around with them installed and working.
That source will never be touched because to get the CO2 the CO gets an extra oxygen added. Talk about unintended consequences. But then CO2 is NOT a pollutant as claimed.

...how carbon emissions from power plants can be safely AND PROFITABLY sequestered... would make some sense.

But this is just free money.

How about planting giant Sequoia trees instead?

Another way to lock up CO2 would be to plant trees whose roots are slow to rot, such as cypress.

Special GMO trees could be developed.

Ah, Little Dick Durbin, the louse that roared, heard from yet again. $10 million thrown to the wind.

Ah, Little Dick Durbin, the louse that roared, heard from yet again. $10 million thrown to the wind.

Ten million, compared to the 20 trillion is akin to wondering about what an eternity is like. It’s like a mountain on one side of a river where annually a little bird picks up a bit from the mountain and flies back across the river. The next year it makes another flight, back once again.

This is only what the beginning of eternity is like and rather like the damned ten million of our money sent to fund the meanderings of weak-minds who call themselves scientists. It doesn’t mean a hell of a lot in comparison to the mountain of trillions, but it’s the damned principle of thing.

All Godless liberals should try to understand the story of the mountain and the little bird as they’re going to understand exactly what eternity is.

Durbin Highlights $10 Million Federal Investment in Illinois CO2 Projects

One wonders what this was a "payoff" for. Maybe that skunk, Durbin knows something the Dims don't want publicized....you think?

I have an idea where we sequester all the CO2 ...

First we shove a big flexible tube up Dick Durbin's arse ....

(I'm a resident of the State of Illinois. No, I didn't vote for the stupid bastard. Never would. I will however vote to shove the tube -- unlubricated of course -- right up his keister, followed immediately by my size 14 triple-wide boot!)
