This is all theatre to try to make it seem more believable when he rigs the election for Letlow.

How do they not work? What role does CCS play in these programs which makes it mandatory?

Exactly what I posted.

The carbon capture people are trying to make it appear that MAGA supports it.

I think a part of the financial viability of the projects relies on credits.

It's also my understanding that low carbon footprint products like blue ammonia rely on CCS in order to reduce their carbon footprint and call it blue (or green).

Im sure Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative will be involved. Its some "organization" that implements the trading of the carbon credits power companies are forced to buy.

Then of course you will need another organization within the govt to oversee RGGI. Then another division within that organization to "spend" the money on green initiatives. I looked up some of the things New York is spending it on....they might as well come out and say they are cutting checks to their cousin or brother in law.

Remember when the Virginia legislature assumed office and immediately passed all those ridiculous measures. One of the first things they did was announce they were joining RGGI.

Course you never see the additional cost you pay, its on your power bill buried in "transfer costs".

Bingo!

CCS brings nothing to the financial table other than 45Q tax credits. If a business cannot run without a constant flow of largess from the government, it's already failed (see also: Solyndra, Abound Solar, Fisker Automotive, Beacon Power, Ener1, etc) and those trying to champion it as being "a vital part of our energy dominance" (or whatever similar jargon the commercials use) are either lying or woefully ignorant.

He is Jeff Landry with his puppet, Nancy Landry.

Machine manipulation is how the cheating will be done.

By supporting cutting-edge technologies like carbon capture and storage, nuclear energy, and next-generation geothermal, the Trump Administration is ensuring America leads in both energy production and environmental innovation — producing the cleanest energy in the world. Moreover, by ending the Biden-era pause on liquefied natural gas export approvals, the U.S. is sharing cleaner energy with allies, reducing global emissions, and creating American jobs — building on President Trump’s first-term successes, where the U.S. led the world in greenhouse gas emission reductions.



So what's wrong with this?


Want to know why Louisiana sucks? People like the OP.

I'm going to borrow Bard's post to reply to you:
