ure a few jobs will come of it, but most of the unemployed people are in need of a better work ethic rather than the need of those few jobs.


It's also a government subsidy for oil companies. Why am i paying for your carbon capture investment and reuse?

What would the progressive position be?

Progressives are against it because it's more $ to "big industry"; doesn't reduce fossil fuel reliance; and is less than a drop in the bucket when it comes to CO2 emissions.

The loudest opposition to carbon capture in Louisiana hasn’t come from conservative energy advocates. It’s come from the same network of environmental activists and NGOs that have spent years fighting pipelines, suing to block industrial projects, and pushing policies designed to phase out fossil fuels altogether.


In my experience - it's coming from the citizens that don't want industry in their backyard.
They want to live in the country, they don't want all the construction workers flooding their roads and town and all the drugs and hookers they bring with them.
And they don't like the idea of eminent domain being used to seize their property for a private industry.

There may be a lot of money in carbon capture, but it's not money for the citizens, it's for big oil.

He’s likely a guy who’s made millions on OnlyFans by farting in jars and selling them to queer folks.

The guy who wrote the piece in the OP.
