  1. The scientific questioning of #CarbonCapture is dismissed in this one paragraph:

    ‘Despite some scepticism from climate advocates who worry about CCUS’s technological immaturity and the risk of subsidising incumbent fossil fuel interests, CCUS features in virtually every credible net zero pathway. The state's role is to spread risk across technologies and enable innovation. Dismissing carbon removal as unproven is no different to dismissing wind or solar a generation ago.’

    Insidious words.

  2. Paper released yesterday by the influential think tank #IPPR on #CarbonCapture being a way to make #Rosebank viable.

    But it’s based on science that’s still failing to stack up and very questionable economics.

    Are we to assume this is part of hesitancy from #Burnham to plough ahead with #NorthSea oil and gas? Is he hoping someone can make the argument it’s the ‘green’ thing to do?

    It stinks and needs to be properly called out.

  3. Liquid Tree Technology uses microalgae photobioreactors to capture CO₂, release oxygen, and generate biomass through photosynthesis.

    At Carbelim, we see this as part of the future of cleaner, smarter, and more biologically active urban infrastructure.

  4. Carbon capture is evolving through direct air capture, industrial solutions and biological innovation. This comparison highlights 10 companies contributing to the global carbon-capture sector in 2026. Carbelim is featured for its microalgae-powered PureAir Tower™, combining biological carbon capture, air purification and smart environmental monitoring.

  5. Carbon capture is a scam. The technology has captured only a tiny fraction of global emissions after decades of operation, it relies heavily on public subsidies, and is frequently used by oil companies to pump more crude oil out of the ground through Enhanced Oil Recovery.

    "If there is one thing that the fossil fuel industry is good at, it’s peddling false solutions to a problem they created. Their latest miracle cure for the climate crisis, carbon capture and storage (CCS) promises to suck up carbon emissions like a vacuum and bury them deep underground. Sounds good in theory. In reality? It is a dangerous distraction, gobbling up billions in public money, enabling more pollution and keeping us hooked on fossil fuels for decades to come. "

  6. Satellite-based estimates of biomass in mature forests of North America underestimate carbon accumulation as estimated by lidar, forest inventories, and ecosystem models. The role of forests as carbon sinks may therefore be underestimated in climate models.

  7. "#Canada isn’t the only country asking taxpayers to subsidize this largely unproven, risky, energy-intensive and less-than-effective technology. The #UnitedStates, #UnitedKingdom and #Australia are also funnelling public money into #carboncapture projects...... It’s insane that obscenely profitable fossil fuel companies are allowed to continue putting all life at risk through unnecessary expansion of their deadly industry." davidsuzuki.org/story/clean-po

    Carbon capture is not only ineffective, it is dangerous

  9. The concerns are surely legit. Best not to have dug the stuff up in the first place. >>
