Tiberius Posted May 12 Share Posted May 12 https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/2024/05/11/carbon-capture-climate-change-exxonmobil-montana/ The remote stretch of public grazing land in southeastern Montana has hardly changed since homesteading days, but underneath this wind-swept expanse lies a hidden asset in high demand: thousands of acres of porous rock where oil company executives say greenhouse gas could be piped in from afar and stored forever. ExxonMobil and the Biden administration see in the grassy 100,000 acres a launchpad for one of the world’s most audacious climate experiments, a plan to take emissions spewing from power plants and factories and trap them underground where they cannot contribute to global warming. The scheme is inching forward despite criticism it will permit polluters to keep polluting while slowing the transition to solar and wind energy. And now sponsors face the additional hurdle of intense local opposition. In the ranching community of Carter County, Mont., the prospect of shipping in all that carbon pollution and injecting it underneath an area called Snowy River is about as popular as an outbreak of hoof-and-mouth disease. “The question I keep hearing is, ‘Why are they making us the dumping ground for the rest of the country?’” said Rod Tauck, chairman of the Carter County Board of Commissioners and a descendant of homesteaders who more than a century ago settled his family ranch. “Not a single constituent I know wants this.” Such tensions are emerging nationwide, throwing an industrial-size wrench into the quest by the White House and major energy companies to advance a vast network of “carbon capture” infrastructure across the country. It would involve tens of thousands of miles of new pipelines, and scores of remote storage sites on the scale of Snowy River, targeted because the porous rock underneath them can act like a carbon sponge. This vision for using technology to reverse climate change was once viewed widely as far-fetched. Now, proposals to divert carbon dioxide from smokestacks to vast subterranean wells are regarded by the White House, the United Nations and the International Energy Agency as crucial to preserving any hope of meeting the world’s climate goals. The Biden administration’s plan to zero out emissions from the power grid by 2035 increasingly hinges on the success of colossal carbon capture deployment. The government has made billions of dollars of incentives available to motivate companies like ExxonMobil and Chevron to rapidly develop it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its been much cooler than normal here in the Northeast but I've yet to hear anyone suggest we're on the verge of a major cyclical cooling trend or Ice Age. For me, whether or not the climate is changing, which it is always doing, and how much of it can be attributable to human activity is not the issue. Let's just say it is changing and end that debate. And get to the real matter for us all. The issue is the identification of the cause, burning fossil fuels, and the solution to that problem. Replacing fossil fuels with renewables. The climate cult is full of buzz words like "sustainable" and "renewable" but there's a hint of dishonesty in their messaging. They paint the picture of some seamless transition to renewables with few to no consequences to individuals or society as a whole. All we need to do is make the commitment to spend the money and make the effort to transform our society to net carbon zero or something like that. Another buzz term. Just unplug from gasoline and go with EV's and continue on our merry way without missing a beat. The physics of it all suggest renewables, wind and solar, are unreliable low energy output sources that will never be able to replace fossil fuels without making concessions regarding cost and mobility. Cultist cite expected technological improvements in battery storage efficiency in the future as thing that will save the day. Its a common theme, as masters of the universe our technology will always be available to solve every problem we encounter. So have no fear. The ecological and environmental cost of disposing of all those used batteries isn't discussed at all. But there will be consequences to everyone. One specific I'm still waiting to hear about is the fate of commercial air travel. Electric planes I expect all providing the same level of service as jet fuel. The unfortunate truth is many lifestyle changes and sacrifices will be required. The "smart" people driving these changes know that's the truth. But they fear sharing the need for drastic lifestyle changes and sacrifices will not sit well with the majority that will be hesitant to give up anything. So they keep quiet. The plan will provide lots of benefits with almost no costs. So don't ask any questions. Or you'll be cast as a climate denier. And don't worry. The elites pushing the agenda, rest assured, will give up nothing. Another common theme. Edited May 13 by All_Pro_Bills 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
