True, though, we do need a quicker solution with a lower barrier to adoption ASAP. Carbon capture could be a good long-term approach to augment CO2 management, provided we figure out the details of CO2 solution “loads”/proportions, costs, maintenance, and capture locations.
Comment on Carbon capture more costly than switching to renewables, researchers find

I’m confused why this is even a question that needs to be answered.
We need renewables and carbon capture to even have a slight chance of having a barely livable planet.
There’s no single solution out there that fixes things

Yeah but stupid people are plentiful and overly confident that they can spitball a better idea for solving the problem than literal experts with decades of expertise can because “they’re too close to the problem” or “they’re paid off by big [fill in the blank] to gum up any progress” or whatever. They just don’t believe in complicated solutions or complicated problems because most people aren’t doing anything particularly complicated with their lives. Incurious people aren’t interested in any explanations or nuance.
