Great. So we'll waste energy capturing and compressing a useless gas, then we'll just release that into the atmosphere when it's capitalistically convenient? Brilliant. Great work, Google. You've really gone green. /s
let’s assume 100% of this CO2 was generated from fossil fuels and eventually will be released into the atmosphere.
is that any less green than grid storage batteries built from massive amounts of mined metals with an enormous CO2 footprint?
If anything it will create a market (and technologies) for co2 capture.
