So like really expensive trees!

The federal government is investing in machines that suck giant amounts of carbon dioxide out of the air in the hopes of reducing damage from climate change.

The Department of Energy said Thursday it will release $3.5 billion to groups developing direct air capture and other technologies that remove carbon dioxide, which when released into the atmosphere causes global warming.

I see we’ve finally unlocked “tree” technology in this game of Civ
@Le_CrocMonsieur
Hold up y'all the government is about to invent TREES
@Oilfield_Rando
Gigantic industrially manufactured machines powered by fossil fuels to do the job of a tree.
If you don’t realize it’s all a scam by now, you’re unreachable.

Yeah, I was thinking, I'm sure every possible unintended consequence has been considered and calculated into this thoroughly.
These fricking people and this ridiculous scam on civilization.

CO2 is PLANT FOOD
These idiots are trying KILL US

They are literally trying to kill plant life on Earth.

China and the other countries that have terrible air quality need the CO2 scrubbers. Our air quality isn't bad enough that we need them. Once again we are acting like we are the problem when it's other countries causing the problems

They're going to starve trees and all kinds of plants!

Follow the money.
Just another money laundering operation to enrich politicians and their families and friends.
All of it.

Plants use CO2 as food and exhaust O2 as plants respire.
Without CO2, plants cannot grow and there will be no oxygen for animals to breathe.
MORONS ALL

No concerns. They have a plan to feed the plants another way.

How are they going to store the CO2? After all, trees are really just carbon storage. All that carbon gets released back in the atmosphere after a tree dies and rots away or burns.

I've seen this movie before. It called the "Lorax". Biden has already expressed that we need to be cutting down our forest instead of the rain forest.

Which I'm sure is a consortium led by Hunter Biden.

I have long thought that capturing greenhouse gasses is the best way to remove them, but I’m not sure how/if that would work if electricity is used to power the machine.

That’s irrelevant, inconvenient, and tends to get in the way of awarding billion$ and making people rich.
Would be funny to prove they have to burn X coal to run the scrubber to remove Y CO2, and find out that X emissions are greater than Y removal.
Meaning it’s a net burden on the climate.

There is no problem whatsoever with the greenhouse gases now or anytime in the future. It’s all a lie
