Carbon capture on a Carbon Based planet is Insanity

[Tell It Right]

An Australian mining company who should know better is hoping to appease green critics by...

There is no appeasing the greenies. We see that here in the U.S.

Has raising the CAFE standards year over year appeased the greenies? Nope.
Did switching over to "clean burning natural gas" appease the greenies? Nope.
The left makes it a point to NEVER BY APPEASED.

I planted 25 Douglas Fir trees on my property in the last two weeks — maybe I can get a lib to give me money to plant more?

Brought to you by the same people using the same rationale that is spewed about about “capturing sunlight”. The tech is bad.

You need to just laugh at such liars.

[Organic Panic]

And when it burns up and kills every living thing? See, Horshoe Lake, in Mammoth Lakes California where every tree in the area was killed. See Lake Nyos Cameroon, where 1700 and all the livestock were killed from a CO2 fart.

The other scams aren’t working, time to invent a new one.

[OHPatriot]

Assuming this stupid idea actually works and enough CO2 is actually captured to actually make a difference, the greenie weenies are betting everything on the HOPE it never escapes.

These morons assume there is ZERO RISK of a storage failure.

What will most likely happen is that the greenie weenies will be pumping CO2 into the storage area at the same rate it is leaking out for a NET ZERO OFFSET. In other words piss away yet more TAX $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

I’ve got a couple dozen carbon capture devices I’m in the process of planting.

Percent 0f CO2 in Earth’s atmosphere: .04%

[mewzilla]

Iceland is doing this.

You know, volcanic Iceland...

Note to the citizenry: You lot have a lot more to worry about from your government than you do your volcanoes.

[William of Barsoom]

With time, heat, and pressure, wouldn’t
Carbon Capture make... ..coal?

[butlerweave]

Burying CO2 in sedimentary rocks is that like getting blood from a stone ?

[The Great RJ]

A similar boondoggle is proposing a pipeline to capture CO2 from Iowa ethanol plants and transport it to an underground burial site in North Dakota. Already the promoters are using eminent domaine to place the pipeline across farmers fields in South Dakota ignoring the landowners rights. This pipeline poses unique health and environmental risks yet the anti oil pipeline crowd is ignoring the project.

CO2 collection and re injection is a common practice in the oil industry in order to maintain oil well pressure.

Meanwhile, from Indiana, this past March...

Irving-Based Heidelberg Materials Could Get Up to $500M DOE Funding for Cement Plant Decarbonization Heidelberg said the project is aimed at advancing decarbonization efforts at its new "state-of-the-art" cement plant in Mitchell, Indiana. The funding will help create "the first full-scale deployment of carbon capture and storage on a cement plant in the U.S.," says CEO Chris Ward.
