This video[1] gives a good perspective on where carbon capture solution fits from an economic standpoint. The summary is that it’s highly infeasible now but if we got to a point where putting a price of $250/ton CO2 was possible then it could make sense.
Right now there’s a lot of other things we can do to make the biggest impact for a lot less cost but we need to be in the research phase for these kinds of things so that once they’re necessary/useful we’ll have the tech to do it.

- spiffytech 3y agoIt's challenging to discuss carbon capture because people can mean two different things. The article is discussing decarbonizing emissions at the source, such as capturing the emissions of a factory smoke stack before it goes anywhere. The video you've linked (at just a quick peek) discusses direct air capture — pulling CO2 out of the open air.
