Just add water (vapor) to the process and you have Carbonic Acid.
Think of the mega BB guns that could be fired with all that gas.
hmmm.....shale fracking causes earthquakes and this will not WHY exactly??
Good think it ain’t helium or that mountain would start floating!
Well, there are plenty of places in the country where people live near huge natural gas tank farms. Is an industrial (or sabotage) incident more likely there or in this one-of-a-kind reservoir? I don’t know.
Putting a pressurized and suffocating gas under a city is ok...because nothing could ever go wrong.
Installing an oil pipeline in Nebraska is not ok, because everything could go wrong.
Lib Logic.
Sandstone formation, eh? Several years ago Kansas Gas and electric said they were going to have to jack up gas rates. Shortly after some mobile homes in Hutchinson, Kansas went up in gas explosions from the ground. Investigators found that the gas has leaked from large underground sandstone/limestone storage pockets (results of washing out salt or somesuch) near Yagy, KS. Wonder how this might playout with CO2. I know nothing of geology, but i do know exceeding pressures in vessels not meant to handle them can be a bad thing. Oh and the raised rates? when it was discovered that there was a huge surplus of Nat gas in these resevoirs, KG&E walked back the rate hike talk and gave everyone a 5%+ discount on their bills for a couple of months IIRC.
If the goal is to take CO2 out of the atmosphere, why store it as a gas, which will eventually just leak back out, despite our best efforts?
Here’s an idea, scientists: when you give CO2 to plants, they convert it into solid matter for you, free of charge. Heck, they will even convert it into fuel for you.
Better yet, it might flip over like Guam!
Another question, did all that CO2 come from the breathing of the so-called scientists? Or, did it come from the other end? A Canadian study determined that the average adult human being emits roughly 3 liters of gas a day.
There are 7 billion humans on the face of the earth, perhaps a little math is needed.
Besides, CO2 is only .035% of the atmosphere we breathe.
When this boondoggle scheme blows Decatur to bits the town will then be known as De Crater.
The state should be heavily fined for having that much CO2 in its possession. It has the potential to be released upon us... If it were a company that had that much, they would pay pay pay..
Next they will try diverting the path of the Mississippi River, using spoons.
... if carbon is truly the problem, lets stop recycling paper and plastic. Landfills are a perfect place for ‘carbon sequestration’.
I would love to some rabid environmentalist’s head explode as he weighs out the merits of recycling vs. ‘carbon sequestration’ in landfills. Would love to some tree hugger with bumper stickers of
STOP GLOBAL WARMING!!!
and
STOP RECYCLING NOW!!!
Set the Carbon Free Pinglist!!!!!!please pm me.
Just wait till it leaks back out or erups.
they could put a pipe into it and launch the next space satellite!
Believe me. There are those who are hoping for a catastrophic release from this idiotic boondoggle. When 10 or 20 thousand people suffocate from a catastrophic release... CO2 will be vilified in a way that we have never imagined. This is probably the plan.
Your tax money is hard at work, as always.
If CO2 is such a problem then why are they allowing Big Cola to PUT IT INTO SOFT DRINKS!
This stuff is so deadly and yet they let them make carbonated beverages?
Why is this allowed? (Answer: they are big libs)
If cola companies were big donors to the GOP party they would be suffering the same fate as the tobacco companies
If tobacco companies were big Dem donors we would all be hearing about the healthful effects of “bathing your lungs in cleansing smoke”
