What could possibly go wrong with storing CO2 under pressure, in the ground near a gigantic super volcano with a rising dome under Yellowstone? Seems like a really great feel-good solution to a non-existent problem to me. Let’s do this near the San Andreas Fault too!

“The problem is the planet doesn’t need saving.”

AI is going to disagree.

We will be the carbon they want to eliminate.

Here’s a guy that might have gone deep into the primaries 24 years ago, and instead he’s swinging in the wind because he is anti-American and anti-Trump. Don’t keep friends like Lizard Cheney, Mark.

It has been fun reading all the comments to my dumb question. THANKS

My question was based on the ability of the “climate scientists” to actually have a chance in hell of collecting and storing enough CO2 to change the climate.

Storing CO2 is a fools errand but one hell of a money maker for Democrat Donors.

Interesting that we are pumping CO2 underground. In NE New Mexico there is a natural dome(Bravo Dome) of CO2 that has been there since forever.

Dr. William Happer, the founder of the CO2 Coalition,

Here's their website; they appear to be the 'good guys'.

Is a big problem, and an indicator of a problem.

Nature’s Decay Department shows up - and increases in magnitude.

We are accustomed to S-L-O-W decay. “Green” is accustomed to natural processes - and nature’s established rates of decay.

What the Governor needs to do is take all the Carbon Dioxide that is in the atmosphere out. Bring the Carbon Dioxide content down to zero. That will solve the problem.

“Carbon sequestration has become Republicans’ most popular answer to climate change”...Not *this* Republican! I don’t play into enviromarxist con games or delusions myself. I’ll take “wars on coal” seriously once Red China does.

Want to stop using coal for power generation? Good idea! Replace coal fired power plants with nuclear plants. Use the coal thus saved for liquefaction into diesel and jet fuels. Fissile uranium is a limited resource, you say? Breeder and fast neutron reactors will make this resource last 100 times longer, plus giving us weapons grade plutonium and uranium for the nuclear warheads we need as a deterrent against Red China.

It will also kill all human life. And they are dumb enough to do it. Just give them time. Anyone who believes they can control the climate is dangerous. The climate is exactly as God wants it to be.
Mr. Reily, was being kinda sarcastic. But give man enough time and he will begin trying to remove this gas and that gas from the atmosphere to “improve” it.

Won’t a massive sudden slug of CO2 really mess things up?

In the absence of wind, CO2 from a leak would creep along the ground like an invisible suffocating blob.

At this very moment the SD Legislature is attempting all kinds of legislation to make things “fair” for the CO2 pipeline folks who’s motivation for taking farmland for pipeline access is strictly financial based on the billions of taxpayer dollars just waiting for every pound of CO2 the pipeline builders are able to sequester.

Speaking of the unconstitutional business of Government picking winners and losers in life’s lottery in the name of supporting the State’s number one business of Agriculture. Corn for Ethanol is the real reality, which in the end does nothing more than extract more money from those with ICE vehicles in the form of additives to gasoline that increases the price to consumers.

Coal is the cheapest fuel for home heating, so in the name of common sense, why don’t we eliminate coal fired power production? One more strike against Governor Gordon of WY who shouldn’t have been elected to dog catcher much less Governor of the Energy State. I’m sure you are all aware of the possible nuclear facility proposed in Kemmerer WY which has only a negative chance of producing nuclear energy. A joint effort between Gordon and another person of dubious distinction, none other than Bill Gates.
