If you could link that it would be great. As far as I understand it, a commercial passenger plane (which holds several hundred people) is no where close to being possible. If you are talking about small planes that hold maximum ten-15 people then sure.

The efficiency doesn’t matter (to a point of manufacturing solar cells, or wind turbines, or whatever your equipment is for your renewable energy source). If all of the gasoline is generated from the air using renewable energy, it could take 100x the energy and still be completely carbon neutral. Carbon neutrality is based on the amount of excess carbon added to the air. If no carbon is added then by definition it’s carbon neutral.

Porsche already has a factory in Chile that is doing this exact same thing at a much larger scale.

The particulate matter won’t occur in a hydrocarbon that is generated, that comes from imperfect processing of crude. If you pull the carbon directly out of the air there are no particulates.

But yes it will still be carbon neutral. No additional carbon will be released back into the atmosphere.

No they do exist! But most scientists agree that we are unlikely to ever see commercial airliners using it, nor will freight liners use it. We would have to see ENORMOUS scientific improvements and many many many things that seem incredibly far fetched invented to get to that point.

How about you go argue with the scientists calling it carbon neutral. My wife literally works in the field. It’s called carbon neutral.

It’s not worse. It’s carbon neutral (as long as the energy source is renewable like the sun). Any carbon it takes in will be released exactly back to where it was. It’s a much much better option than digging up oil.

On top of that, there are currently no likely possibilities of replacing gasoline for things like planes. So replacing their gas with carbon neutral gas will improve the situation by 100%.

I’ve seen this article with at least 5 different verbs now. “Stunned”, “gobsmacked”, yadda yadda yadda

You know you can just eat protein right?

The tizen version is finally close to release. I don’t use a Samsung TV but in-laws do and I don’t like installing the dev version.

This is why I don’t say I need to edit my photos, but instead I need to process them. Editing is clearly understood by the layperson as Photoshop and while they don’t understand processing necessarily, many people still understand taking photos to a store and getting them processed from the film to a photo they can give someone.

There’s a jerryrigeverything video linked in the article. It barely holds up to a 9mm and falls to a .17.

That was with an essentially infinite supply of people to sell to. There’s only 10k of these things, and putting it on the internet insures that you’re only going to get an incredibly small fraction of the gold sold back to gold stores.
