> if you solve carbon capture, you solve the problem
In what way does it solve anything? At that point we built a huge Rube Goldberg machine that burns coal for X energy, spends 2X energy on getting back the carbon (it’s simple entropy), producing that offset from nuclear and renewables.. it may be fun as an art installation somewhere, but to play with this bullshit at the scale of our planet is just ridiculous.
