The world’s biggest plant to pull carbon from the sky just opened
wapo.st
Experts say we’ll need carbon capture to offset stubborn emissions that can’t easily be cut with existing green technology.

the plant is designed to remove 36,000 metric tons of carbon each year, the equivalent of taking 8,600 cars off the road.

In short, for removal like this to make a meaningful difference, and not just function as a PR exercise, we’ll need to cut emissions to almost zero.

    You have to start taking it out of the atmosphere somehow, tho…reducing what we make is simply not enough.

    Even if we cut emissions to zero the planet is fucked unless we can recapture carbon
