Carbon Capture Fantasy?<br />
By: Dan Hyde / Call to Action<br />
day doesn’t go by when you don’t read or hear<br />
A about alleged “climate change” and the evils<br />
of the carbon footprint it produces. Fact is, the<br />
planet cannot exist without a carbon footprint i.e.<br />
carbon dioxide.<br />
In fact if you really want to get technical, the human body is<br />
fundamentally a “carbon unit” to coin an old Star Trek phrase. So,<br />
what’s the problem?<br />
The cliche “Too much of anything is a bad thing” seems applicable.<br />
There are an estimated 300 million internal combustion and diesel<br />
powered vehicles operating on American roads.<br />
Each produces a significant amount of air polluting chemicals<br />
such as benzene and carbon monoxide to name but a few. When you<br />
couple that with a total estimated worldwide number of 1.4 billion<br />
vehicles, then the sheer volume of deadly air pollutants excreted into<br />
the atmosphere every day is exponentially averse!<br />
People are aware of governmental edicts mandating the widespread<br />
deployment of “cleaner” fuel burning vehicles such as electric powered<br />
cars and trucks. This purportedly would help mitigate the carbon<br />
problem.<br />
But few are aware of another type of carbon reduction technology –<br />
Carbon Capture. It is essentially an extremely elaborate air vacuum<br />
cleaner!<br />
This “appliance” that literally sucks the bad carbon out of the air<br />
resembles a common sound system used at high decibel rock concerts.<br />
The proprietary technology receives the “bad carbon” and stores it<br />
at an estimated depth of 8,000 feet underground where is remains<br />
essentially inert.<br />
At that depth the CO2 is trapped in an inescapable bed rock “prison.”<br />
This cutting edge and revolutionary technology is in the early stages of<br />
widespread use.<br />
Cost, of course, is a main concern. It is estimated to be on the same<br />
level of EV production facilities - hundreds of millions of dollars per<br />
site application.<br />
If and that’s a big if the technology does as is designed to do, it truly<br />
would be a game changer and we will all benefit!<br />
