If you build enough solar and wind to kick fossils off the grid, they’re going to overproduce at times of peak operation. Rather than wasting that peak production, use it to process CO2.

Also, Canada’s forests burned so hard, they were a net emitter this year. I’m not sure how reliable a carbon sink trees really are as the warming gets worse…

    Geothermal. It doesn't matter where you put up those carbon capture facilities. Meaning you could put them in the desert, you could them next to some vulcanos...and so on.

    And nuclear builds are a waste of carbon...all that steel and concrete is most of the time not calculated when co2/kwh gets...well, calculated
