It's the blue thing in the pic.

I hope they're not expecting to be growing any grass nearby.

To be instantly offset by Fagradalsfjall’s next eruption.

I thought I noticed less CO2 in the air today.

Well, they could just plant a forest.

Would work just as well and look nicer.

Could have pic-a-nics there too.

This is such a bad idea.

CO2 is essential for life on earth.

Below a certain level mass extinction starts.

Thought I read somewhere it does the work of 160 trees.

If true, big whoop. Tear the thing out and plant trees in the footprint.

How much energy and raw materials that had to be dug up did it take to build that when they could just do the same thing by planting grass and trees?

STUPIDITY! They’d be better off making burnt offerings to the Germanic gods! It would be just as effective and much cheaper.

It should undo the CO2 emissions caused by Bill Gates and John Kerry.

Only the CO2 emissions of about 8 billion more people remain to be dealt with.

If carbon dioxide is so bad then why are they forcing school kids to inhale their own carbon dioxide?

Eliminating the European VAT on heat pumps would be a better value I’m sure.

“Planting a 100 million trees would result in a total amount of 18 million (!) tons of Carbon being captured every single year. A baby tree absorbs 5.9kg CO2 per year, while a 10 year old tree absorbs 22kg CO2 per year.”

www.carbonpirates.com/blog/how-much-carbon-do-trees-absorb/

Son 1 tree absorbs .18 tons of carbon a year.

So that 4000 tons is the eqivalent of 4000/.18 = 22,222 trees.

You can plant 300 to 800 trees per acre. So lets go with 500 trees per acre. That would take 44 acres of trees.

I think they could have planted trees.

> The CO2 is then mixed with water and pumped underground, where it slowly turns into rock. <

What kind of rock? Carbon dioxide plus water yields carbonic acid. (It’s an equilibrium reaction, for you science nerds.) No “rock” is involved. So I guess I’m missing something here.
