Yes but within reason, it shouldn’t be just us trying funding something that would benefit the world

 @9NF7HLPanswered…2yrs2Y

No, carbon capture technology can be used by some corporations as greenwashing to distract from environmental damage they're causing which is more nuanced than just CO2 emissions. Governments should subsidise practices which reduce emissions and other forms of pollution/damage rather than just offsetting them.

 @BF2F4R3answered…1wk1W

Yes, but remain cognizant that it is currently not promising and the focus has to be squarely on reducing emissions

 @B9DZ6RWanswered…5mos5MO

No, carbon capture schemes are less effective than other forms of emission reduction such as solar and wind energy, increasing public transport and thus reducing car dependency, planting more trees to capture carbon and electrification.

 @B85TR8Qanswered…8mos8MO

yes but not that much money because there could be failures and also i’m aware climate change has a natural cycle to it aswell
