  • Either you believe man-made climate change is a nightmarish existential threat to civilization. Whichever it is, let’s at least agree mankind is dumping too much carbon into the atmosphere.
    Not convinced? Here are some numbers. Prior to the industrial revolution, the earth’s atmospheric carbon dioxide concentration was chilling somewhere around 280 parts per million. If we want to keep our planet habitable, respectable climatologists all agree, we need to keep that number below 350 parts per million, tops.

      for those who dont know and are going to come here about to spam "RADIOACTIVE WASTE", modern nuclear reactors produce little radioactive waste and with modern technology that can be reduced by having a Thorium reactor with liquid sodium cooling to basically nothing. and whats left over can be recycled back into new nuclear fuel and fed back into smaller reactors. nuclear plants have the least amount of deaths directly or indirectly caused by them of all of power generation including solar and wind (and even including events like Chernobyl) an produce the least amount of air pollutants of all the power generation options also including solar and wind

      They work by converting Thorium 232 into Uranium 233 by neutron bombardment. The advantage is they avoid the three main dangers of conventional nuclear reactors. Namely the build up of steam or the production of hydrogen within the main reactor core. They also cannot suffer from a meltdown scenario.
      I highly recommend watching some of the RUclips videos about them. All three of those issues have plagued conventional nuclear power plants and those were the causese of the accidents at Three Miles island, Windscale, Chernobyl, and Fukushima.

      Most of the places on Earth that can support forests already do. Planting more trees in a forest doesn't really do anything. Additionally, grasslands are good because in the very, very long-term, they sequester more carbon than forests do. But we are talking thousands of years. AFAIK there is a cycle between grasslands and forests, and in some places that cycle has been interrupted by the effects of early human expansion. Anyway, there is a maximum amount of carbon that forested land can sequester and frankly, it is impossible for that to be enough. This is because most of the carbon we are using WAS outside of the carbon cycle, and was ADDED to the carbon cycle. So to achieve the balance that existed before humans interfered with things, we have to take total carbon out of the system. Planting trees in areas that already had trees won't do that. We can use carbon in products like plastics, paraffins, etc., as long as we are aware of whether that same carbon will outgas back into the atmosphere or not. We can sequester carbon back into the ground or use it in terraforming projects. But one of the most exciting things about carbon capture is that in addition to re-achieving a balance, we can actually use carbon to create new, carbon-neutral fuel with green power generation. In other words, we can continue to use "fossil fuels" as much as we like without negatively impacting the Earth's temperature, AS LONG AS that fuel comes from carbon capture plants that are powered by solar, wind, geothernal, hydroelectic, and nuclear power plants.

      I’m with you in terms of reforesting lost parts of forest alone for the sake of indigenous species and ecosystems. However trees might not per se achieve the effect you expect. Tree canopies absorb 85 - 95% of the incoming light energy. Large deserted areas might be less suited than one would think even tho they would be the most obvious choice. Those areas usually only absorb 60 -70% of the incoming light. Afforestation could therefore result in 20 - 80% more light being absorbed. Question is wether the reduction in CO2 outweighs the additional heat that is being trapped. We’re talking bout massive amounts of energy here. So planting large amounts of tree has to be done with an adequate amount of consideration.
      Plus, trees only act as a carbon sink if they are stored somewhere where they cannot decompose back into CO2. So you cannot really use the wood.

      Unless we give it enough momentum to have escape velocity, it will just fall back to earth. CO2 is surprisingly heavy for a gas, so it is unlikely to be blown away by the solar wind unless it already has enough momentum to escape earth's gravity well.
      Additionally, al large component of the warming effect of CO2 has to do with it's absorbance window, and for a whole bunch of somewhat complicated reasons, increasing levels of CO2 in the upper atmosphere have a stronger effect on increasing surface temperatures than a comparable increase at ground level due to it acting a bit like a insulative blanket that prevents mixing of the troposphere and stratosphere. Paradoxically, this actually also leads to a cooling of the upper atmosphere....
      The short version, this would be a very complicated and costly way to get rid of excess CO2, and it could wind up making the problem worse if not handled right.

      If you can condense the carbon from CO2 you might be able to repurpose it for the production of high-value materials like graphene diamonds, heck it might even be possible to turn it into fuel or fertilizer. While yes we can bury it in the ground and treat it like nuclear waste, why not invest the time and effort to find more beneficial ways of harnessing it. Also, Plants need CO2 to produce oxygen if we bury or otherwise dispose of it all we would see our planet become less and less green, which sounds counter-productive for something called a "green initiave". The best thing I can imagine is finding a way to direct and localize the CO2 to needed places like rainforests or other plant dense areas this would allow plants to grow faster and larger thus being able to handle more CO2 and produce more oxygen.

    I recently calculated how much it will cost, to build enough carbon capture factory's. To capture all of the released carbon emissions in the Netherlands in a year. And it will cost less then 11.5 billion euros. I really believe that is a very low number. To create a net zero country. Of course that doesn't includes the running costs. When there are enough U's for CCU, then it will be profitable. And sustainable because of all the carbon we can extract from the air.

    You didn't say anything about Carbon Engineering's ability to convert carbon captured from the atmosphere into a useful fuel for our cars. And that this fuel will not have a carbon footprint. Also with scale they can capture this carbon for less than $100 per ton. I believe Climeworks is still at $500 to $600 per ton

    • @jamespiccus1073
      @jamespiccus1073 2 года назад +1

      You are right that carbon engineering targets some 94 $/t as their mid to long term price goal and climeworks is at 600 $/t as of today - however, they obviously as well are planning to scale massively, targeting the 100 $/t mark. Even though I agree, that carbon engineering has a head start regarding the costs. However, there is an importent fundamental difference: Carbon engineering uses High-Temperature DACCS and needs heat at >800°C for their process, while climeworks only needs ~100°C. The fundamental difference in this is that 100°C can be reached with electric heat pumps thus allowing for both: A massive reduction in primary energy demand as well as an operation based on green electricity alone. Carbon engineering in contrast requires natural gas - this is not as bad as it sounds since the emissions are captured directly in the process itself; still, it leaves as bitter taste to remain dependent on fossiles.
      Regarding power to liquid: In my opinion that idea is not going to work from an econoic perspective. Imagine you have CO2 from wherever you like for free (maybe captured with DACCS or CCS). You have two options. Option 1: You make a fuel from it. This requires hydrogen so you also have to built electrolysis. Then you have to built a Harber-Bosch process to fuse hydrogen and carbon. Both process costing a lot capital and efficiency. Then you have to transport your fuel from wherever you produced it to the consumer, which again comes at costs and efficiency losses (e.g. for cooling for LNG). The final costs in literature for synth-fuels are typically assest to >>15ct/kWh in the long-term. Option 2: You suequester your free Co2 underground. This costs about 1 Cent for the CO2 that is released by burning 1kWh of natural gas (~200g_CH4). Now you can burn 1 kWh of conventional, fossile natural gas and are also still climate neutral. However, fossile natural gas costs about 2ct/kWh on the European gas excahnges, leaving you with total costs of ~3 ct/kWh. THis is far cheaper than the synthewtic fuel path, does require no additional infrastructure (pipelines, harbors, etc.) and both path are CO2 neutral.
