The monthly average carbon dioxide (CO2) level in Earth's atmosphere exceeds 420 parts per million (ppm) for the first time in recorded history.
Yes. We have the capability to build one of these in every major city in the entire world. We could be done building them inside of 20 years. As soon as we had 30-35% of them built we would start to actually see their effects.
Are you sure? Do we've have better technology than this? The world's biggest carbon-removal plant just opened. In a year, it'll negate just 3 seconds' worth of global emissions. https://archive.ph/dpXld Awesome, if so. Carbon tax with dividend and build those suckers out. As well as nukes.
You're link didn't complete? Not only do we have the technology but it can be expanded easily. It's not just that we CAN do this? It's more that now we HAVE to do this or we won't stop the process in time. "The number of things that would have to happen without direct air capture are so stretching and multiple it's highly unlikely we can meet the Paris Agreements without it" – Ajay Gambhir https://www.bbc.com/future/article/20210310-the-trillion-dollar-plan-to-capture-co2
Sorry, the link was working for me. I attached an archived copy which removed some formatting so it should load better, and I also included a heading. I'm all for carbon capture as much as possible, we'll have to do something to make gains once we can cut enough carbon emissions. But as far as I know, we don't make enough carbon free electricity to make a difference by powering carbon capture plants and the carbon capture technology we currently have has to run 3 years to remove about 3 seconds worth of current carbon emissions. So we need to make a LOT more carbon free power, and drastically improve our carbon capture technology. Which yes, absolutely needs to happen. Frankly, with the war in Ukraine, and China imploding as a world power, we'll probably see huge spikes in carbon emissions for the next 5-10 years while we move manufacturing back to the Americas. We need to get moving on nuclear ASAP.
