Carbon capture technology of all types. We need them all. It's a bit of a negative community.
A joint venture between Swiss company Climeworks and Kenya-based Great Carbon Valley has been billed as a springboard for creating a new, green economy in Africa.
Direct Air Capture vs Thermodynamics (Cool Worlds)
Video Description:
Direct Air Capture (DAC) has been getting more and more attention over the last few years. Could we avert climate change by pulling carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere? Could we not just stop, but actually reverse the damage done? Unfortunately, most don't fully appreciate just quite how much CO2 we've emitted and the outrageous scale of the problem facing us. Today, we apply the fundamental principles of thermodynamics to question whether this is even feasible.

Project Vesta - accelerated weathering on the beach
Help reverse climate change by turning a trillion tonnes of CO2 into rock.
Taking rock (Olivine) and dumping it on the beach, so that the waves break it down, adjust ocean pH and mineralize the CO₂.
