    As they mention reducing is key. But I think it’s going to be really hard to do carbon capture at a scale that actually matters. It will require a lot of additional green power generation, and the material extraction for the capture machinery, the transportation, the maintenance etc will have to be low carbon as well, otherwise there is still no point.

    And there is significant inertia in greenhouse production so the greenhouse effect would keep rising for a decade even if we were at zero now.
