Let me know when you sign up for a 5$/gallon carbon tax on gasoline.


That is something like $600 per ton of CO2. For that amount you can literally capture the CO2 from the air today.


Alas there is a backlog of a century of emissions to handle. You know, externalizing costs on other people?

At this point we'll need active carbon capture not for neutrality, which is its own political boondoggle, but for actual active mitigation of some of the damage.

Dont worry, nothing like this will come to pass. Pollute away.
