    This image is pretty misleading. It’s super easy to overlook that “900km” at the bottom. They would somehow transport the raw product 900km to existing infrastructure. This is on top of the problem of capturing the gas they want, while leaving behind the gas they don’t want (CO2) - which makes up 40% of what’s in there.

    These are pretty significant bridges to cross. I don’t want to say that they’re dreaming, because the technology to do this does exist. But it’s going to be super vital to hold them to the whole ‘put the Carbon Dioxide back into the hole’ part of the picture, and not just let them ‘whoopsie, we accidentally let it loose into the atmosphere’.
