Back in the seventies when they were hollering about global cooling, some scientists were planning on blowing up glaciers or something in Alaska to warm the earth.

Rabid buffoons....carbon dioxide is absolutely necessary for plant life. Without plants,no life on earth.

Isn't our atmosphere about 80 percent nitrogen, almost 20 percent oxygen, with less than 1 percent trace gasses? And of that, about 0.04 percent (four-hundredths of a percent) is CO2. So liberal buffoons want to reduce the mere 0.04 percent of CO2 and starve plant life on Earth. Madness I say!

They - the climate alarmists - consider what humans have done over the course of time as in affect “human engineering” and now they think we arrogant humans are so utopian perfect we can intentionally mess with the atmosphere in a supreme feat of human engineering, and nothing will possibly go wrong! Yea, right! Sometimes I think these climate “fixers” are worse than all the Al Gore climate alarmists.

What does it take to be a “scientist” now-a-days? Must you be a lunatic??? I laugh at these morons.

Climeworks removes CO2 from the air, and then sells it to be re-used... Is this insane...?

Quite insane. Especially when the article notes they sell it at a loss. This sounds like something Kramer would have come up with on the Seinfeld show. ;-)

These idiots are going to screw around, and get us all killed with their false science. Just ask any of them to prove there is such a thing as “global warming” much less “global warming caused by mankind, and all you get in return is some crap that would make up a piece of a puzzle, but never can they present the entire puzzle as it doesn’t exist. They all need to be in rubber rooms playing with themselves.

They dream up more and more outlandish ways to suck money out of their economies and create busywork jobs.

As long as they keep this idocy in Europe and burden their own economies it’s another WIN for president Trump.

How about planting a lot of trees? There used to be a holiday known as Arbor Day.

That's equivalent to the annual emissions of only 45 Americans.

From a $23 million dollar plant???!!!

They could quadruple the results by just going out and shooting a couple hundred ISIS or Al-Qaeda killers for an investment of a few hundred dollars a head.

The rag-heads don't have the same standard of living as Americans so you would have to kill 10 times as many ISIS. Hey ... nothing wrong with that.

Buy an old depleted underground salt mine, grow trees and put the logs into the salt mines.

This is why I have never understood the environmentalist logic in recycling paper. Paper comes from trees that are planted as a crop. It is like recycling wheat. Bury the paper in a landfill and plant more trees.
