How much carbon dioxide was produced to build this fucking thing.
Ssssssh. Sssssssssssssssh. Only dreams now.
Only kisses Jenny
And then to run it! I hate how these ideas get funding and are immediately being built without question. How much energy was put in the materials, in building it, and how much more will they need to run it to extract how much CO2 exactly? And then let's say it works. It works so well that in that region CO2 levels fall well below and reach normal levels. What then? They leave it there? Move it?
How much environmental damage from surface disturbance and tailings?
