    There’s no choice between eliminating the dirtiest fuels and enacting carbon capture. We’ve got to do it all, now: ➡️ phase out coal ➡️ move to renewables ➡️ capture carbon https://bloom.bg/2CMRe49 pic.twitter.com/BJLJ3FaZrh

        It’s past time to start investing in technology to suck carbon out of the atmosphere. Evidence shows that we can’t avoid dangerous global warming without carbon capture http://bloom.bg/2CMRe49 pic.twitter.com/2dh1k7WzY5

        Carbon capture technology won't go far without government help 💰 In order to make carbon capture schemes profitable, we need subsidies, infrastructure investments and policy changes http://bloom.bg/2CMRe49 pic.twitter.com/V7TMoe4vpQ

        The one place where carbon capture has a chance to flourish is California, thanks to the state’s regulations that increasingly require “low-carbon” fuels http://bloom.bg/2CMRe49 pic.twitter.com/1RC4ZY6vBw

        A group of environmental engineers proposed another plan for capturing carbon from ethanol refineries in the Midwest – where the emissions are primarily made up of carbon dioxide http://bloom.bg/2CMRe49 pic.twitter.com/qcpd5FVp1a

        The amount of carbon captured has to start out small, but people will learn, and the technology will advance. Getting started now is extremely important http://bloom.bg/2CMRe49 pic.twitter.com/IhBcjx3mOa

        You forgot nuclear. The only thing we have now that is scale able and zero-carbon.

        It’s not zero carbon.

        The process of fission does not release CO2. If you're claiming that building lots of new concrete facilities will release carbon you're right but then you have to consider carbon emissions from manufacturing solar panels and wind turbines.

        Sure, but the amount of carbon produced in the manufacture of wind turbines is a lot less than a nuclear power station per mwh of installed capacity.

        I'd have to see some research on that. You need a LOT of wind turbines (and batteries) to replace a nuclear power plant. http://large.stanford.edu/courses/2011/ph241/ali1/ …pic.twitter.com/P08sR1HIkg

        Never mind I see what you’re saying about batteries making the difference moot. That’s a good point.

        Just another thing the middle class will pay for through a carbon tax. The uber rich already got an obscene tax cut and will have some loophole created that will save them the liability. It's all in the Federalist's playbook who control tRUMP.
