This article is remarakable in that it exposes the REAL agenda of the global warming crowd. This discussion is about air CO2 capture and conversion/storage as a tehnological means of reducing atomospheric CO2:

"Many individuals, including a large portion of environmentalists, believe that a purely technological approach to stabilizing carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere could lead to social apathy towards climate change.

Ted Parson, a professor at the School of National Resources and Environment at the University of Michigan, writes that the promises of air capture could carry a “moral hazard” because political pressure for near-term efforts to curtail climate change may be reduced.

Air capture also only addresses one of many factors adversely affecting the environment. The climate crisis is a powerful tool to motivate change - like checking the ever-expanding global population and excessive resource consumption - and if the urgency of climate change is compromised, other environmental projects may fall by the wayside."

So...it is not about fixing global warming. It is about fixing human behavior to conform with what radical greens think is important.
