I think the human mind has difficulty understanding the scale of the problem. Carbon capture cannot work. A ton of coal releases way more than its weight in CO2 when combusted. Same (but a little better at the margin) for oil and Nat Gas. https://www.bp.com/content/dam/bp/business-sites/en/global/corporate/pdfs/energy-economics/statistical-review/bp-stats-review-2018-carbon-emissions-methodology.pdf https://www.bp.com/content/dam/bp/business-sites/en/global/c... We are talking about GIGATONS a year of CO2 that needs to be captured and put somewhere. For every mountain top that is removed, we would have to figure out where to put three more mountains. Not going to happen.
