This emerging technology has become a cornerstone of government strategies to slash fossil fuel emissions and meet climate goals. But when CCS operations leak, they can pose significant risks to water resources. The pressurized CO2 stored underground can escape and potentially propel brine trapped in the same area toward potable water. The leaks can cause heavy metal contamination and potentially lower pH levels, making water undrinkable. This is what bothers critics of carbon capture, who worry that it’s solving one problem by creating another.
Dumbest scam ever considering our plants need and use CO2 to live and respire O2. What a joke these “scientific” grifters have pulled on the sheeple.

CO2 storage pipes is nothing but a joke, make that a scam, being pulled on the world again. A money making scheme that’s going to fill up the pockets of the well connected business owners and politicians. Sound familiar?

How lovely. The political animals, incapable of tacking real problems like the National Debt, enact a commandment in service to the Religion of Climate in order to pretend to change the weather in 100-150 years…maybe…probably not. Their bought and paid for scientists’ plan was to expensively pump CO2 underground where it couldn’t possibly escape because the Earth is completely impermeable to gases. Anyone see any flaws in their expensive plan? Result? Scientists, who must not be questioned and whose grants depend exclusively on the perpetuation of their pogrom on common Earth organic compounds, have now created ACTUAL problems that now… Read more »
A largely unasked question is becoming glaring: Is Illinois doing all it should to use artificial intelligence to make government cost less and work better? So far, the evidence says no.
