A Canadian startup awarded a US$40-million grant from Bill Gates’ climate solutions initiative is preparing to extract carbon directly from the atmosphere at its Alberta site by this spring.
Montreal-based Deep Sky announced on Wednesday that it had secured funding from Breakthrough Energy Catalyst, a firm established by Gates, to support its Deep Sky Alpha project.
According to CEO Damien Steel, construction at the facility in Innisfail, just north of Calgary, is already in progress.

That, too.
On the other.... what the heck do you guys think you are doing?
You do not know enough about the system you are messing with to know what you are doing.
You have no idea what the "right amount" of anything is and you also have no idea how they relate to each other.
No way can you remove C02 from the atmosphere in significant quantities aside from planting trees and vegetation. The equipment and energy requirements are astronomical.
We have to try and execute these people.
Perhaps they could just recycle gasoline. This is a great idea!
Unintended consequences.
Always unintended consequences.
Choke them trees!
It appears Gates reached the pre Biden stage goofy and getting worse.
Who wrote that headline? Remove Earth’s atmosphere? That’s not what’s in the article. Extracting carbon is what it says.
Who gives them permission to fool around with our planet?
If one reads Gates’ statements, ‘unintended’ doesn’t come into it.
Bill GATES is PURE EVIL.....and anyone named DAMIEN IS SUSPECT ALSO
An aquifer is a body of permeable rock which can contain or transmit groundwater.
In other words, according to Oxford, it is a porous rock filled product that can flow water through and dispell the carbon into the soil around it. And this product apparently has salt water in it.
Salt water can negatively impact soil and plants in a number of ways, including:
Dehydrating plants: Salt in soil water can prevent plants from growing. absorbing water through osmosis, which can lead to dehydration, reduced growth, or plant death.
Reducing soil drainage: Salt water can cause clay dispersion, which reduces the soil’s ability to drain.
Increasing nutrient release: Salt water can increase the release of nutrients into the soil, which can lead to algal blooms and fish mortality.
Degrading groundwater: Salt water can degrade groundwater that is used for irrigation.
Maybe this is not such a good idea.

I’m pretty sure that’s the point.

money blinds them.
logic fails them.
Trees already doing that for free, turning it into lumber, lots of it, and paper.
