Stop farting so violently

I'm pretty sure Lake Toba alone released more CO2 than humanity has

isn't there a company that is developing a carbon extraction that turns it into feul pellets?

Yes

They're experimenting with carbon capture here in BC

Something Microsoft or Bill Gates invested in in Canada

If it's scalable then they can work on maybe turning it back into fuel

problem solved, no cap and trade needed, alernative feul as bonus. Environmental crisis averted

I think it's a good idea but it's not a replacement or anything

Really we're going to have to move to a system other than one size fits all, as annoying as that may be

nuclear

They’re doing carbon capture research in the states as well

I’ve seen a few postdocs for it lately while job searching

Yeah they're no where near going to be able to revert it, but density is pretty good on it, also it takes power to use it, but better than solar or lithium

Nuclear helps with electricity gen, but currently that's not a viable avenue for tankers or planes, unless you plan on making nuclear tankers and aircraft and talking people into hopping onboard

Electric planes 😎

Charged by nuke plants 😎

AFAIK we don't have batteries sufficient for large scale transport

They'll probably be oil fueled for some time

neighborhood nukes

And then there's the issue of plastics

100 years using waste from larger plants, eats it's own poop

Electric planes yuck

I don't really see how you'd make carbon capture viable in its own right. The energy to capture the CO2 and convert it to fuel is going to be more than the energy you get from the fuel

Have to be through chemical or biological processes

Comes with the other issues

The idea would be to use hydrogen in the conversion process iirc

Future direct-air capture plants will cost up to $400 per metric ton of captured carbon dioxide to operate, Gebald said, with carbon sequestration adding an additional $10-$20 to that cost per ton.

operational costs need to fall to about $100 per ton of captured carbon for the technology to be scalable.

Remember when it was $10000

carbon dioxide is removed and piped into nearby greenhouses, which will use 900 metric tons of captured carbon to grow crops each year.

this article was from 2017 so they might be closer now

Aircraft Carriers are already nuclear powered. It wouldn't be to much different to get tanker ships to run on nuclear. Nuclear planes won't happen

They had nuclear planes back in 45

really? didn't know that

Japan knows it

🔥

They also had nuclear space craft but it would use too much radiation

amazing. lol

I believe fallout is made up to vilianize nuclear because it is so close to free energy, the cartels hate it.
