A key element of Canada’s future climate policy is carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS). This country’s federal government is spending hundreds of millions of dollars to advance the commercial viability of CCUS technologies.
Despite what critics say about CCUS, it is working as intended for fossil fuel producers. CCUS is not a solution, it is a distraction. The aim is to justify continued production of carbon rich energy.
Dr. Philip E. Mason produces YouTube videos under the pseudonym Thunderf00t. He regularly uses science to dispute claims of people and organization placing self interest ahead of the public interest.

The only real carbon capture are trees and mass reforestation. Sadly we are clear cutting that option.

I posted this link before but in case those interested in the subject missed it here it is. Scale mostly certainly would be an obstacle and still using it to continue to tap into a diminishing non renewable resource speaks for itself never mind the new kid on the block being the increase in CO2 producing forest fires in BC

Al Gore deals with the fallacy of carbon capture & storage very well in this TED talk video. No question it is a distraction by the oil & gas industry to justify the continuation of producing their product.
