Oh my, not one or two or three but four people needed to write about this ridiculous and hare brained scheme.

A new day, a new installment of the global warming hoax propaganda show.

The amount of CO2 in the atmosphere was reduced by about 90% during the last 150 million years. If this trend continues CO2 will inevitably fall to levels that threaten the survival of plants, which require a minimum of 150 ppm to survive.
95% of all the CO2 in the atmosphere comes from nature itself, only 5% is created by man. At the current level of 410 PPM, man is only adding approx. 21 PPM of CO2.
Those are the numbers the alarmists conveniently withhold from the public whenever they talk about climate change.

If you see the words “carbon capture” run away as fast as you can.

Can’t wait for Blue cities to mandate this. On top of eliminating cars and gas stoves/heaters.

You’ve gotta admit, it’s hard to spin this one.

Worth repeating . . .

It’s simple destruction of our economy and way of life. The absurdity of it is meant to rub it in our faces.

Pulling carbon dioxide from the air - What a concept!
Trees, cultivated crops, grass, flowering plants, even pines and lichen all to this in the presence of moisture and sunlight.
Plant more trees, grow more crops, raise more lawns. The problem solves itself. Become truly “green”!
And nary a solar panel or windmill in sight.

You thought these were trees? No, they are carbon capture devices.

Put Fusion GPS in charge and use Dominion voting machines to ‘capture’ the carbon.

How many tons of oxygen do they pull out of the air for every ton of carbon they pull out?
(may be sarcasm)
