- simonblack 3y agoBurying CO2 underground is not solving the problem. It's merely kicking the can down the road for somebody in the future to fix. (If that's at all possible, that is.) Like the ocean seemed to be an inexhaustible trash-can for centuries only for us to discover that it isn't, burying CO2 waste underground is only a short-term solution. What happens when all of the convenient 'holes' have been filled? Do we then start building mountains of CO2 waste on top of valuable land?
