Carbon capture is so dumb. Just do the effective things like building out massive renewable energy generation like in China and India, phase out coal and oil, improve/install heat pumps, top down changes to phase out the use of plastic and reuse more containers like milk, soda etc like we did in the past, make nuclear plants, come up with cheap, safe lab grown meat etc.

It’s growing cells, you can bet your ass it’s going to happen sooner or later. It’s also definitely going to be cheaper than raising a whole cow by a mile.
