The car­bon capt­ure comp­any Cli­meworks on­ly capt­ur­es a fracti­on of the CO2 it promises its machines can capt­ure. The comp­any is fail­ing to car­bon off­set the em­issi­ons resulting from its operati­ons – which have grown rapidly in recent ye­ars.

  1. In my opinion Tech optimism is smoke and mirrors.

  2. So this is a machine that is just adding to the amount of CO2 into the air, net?

    Did i understand that correctly? The magic bullet doesn’t work as promised?

  3. Ah hell, I was sure they wrre going to succeed. Never mind, let me quickly add them to my failed carbon capture smoke and mirrors and other fossil fuel funded avoidance methods list.

  4. How much did that facility cost, measured in solar panels and wind turbines?

  5. Carbon capture, offset..it’s all smoke and mirrors. The only clear way of reducing CO2 is to reduce primary production.
