Climate change: 'Magic bullet' carbon solution takes big step
- sien 8y agoThis is huge news. The implications of cheap C02 extraction are immense. See this paper on what it means. https://sciencepolicy.colorado.edu/admin/publication_files/resource-2716-2009.03.pdf https://sciencepolicy.colorado.edu/admin/publication_files/r... The key thing is that in 2100 to keep C02 ppm at 450 ppm it would cost 0.6 % of global GDP.

But I think EV's mean that oil consumption is going to start going down in the not-so-distant future, which will in turn crash the price of oil, and this whole project will become unprofitable.
