It never really occurred to me until just now, but capturing carbon will be our next gold rush. Vast amounts of money are about to be thrown around.
Whether is direct carbon capture, huge vats of algae, or massive forests, governments are going to throw money at it all. It would be nice to be in a position to have some of it land in my pocket.
