Carbon capture does not appear to be a viable mitigation measure for climate change.
It's not an efficient use of energy or resources, as it's failed to meet it's targets every single time it's been tried. Yet, every plan for "NET zero by 2050" relies on this.
The "NET" part depends on there being SOMETHING that's taking CO2 out of the atmosphere - but there isn't and likely won't be. The only viable method of carbon capture is to keep it underground.
