minus-squareUnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·4 months agoCarbon Capture costs are far higher than reducing emissions with each ton of carbon costing between $230 and $540. Halting emissions is the most efficient method of reducing total emissions. Capture is extraordinarily expensive and inefficient, particularly when you’re still using carbon-based infrastructure to power compressors.
