I'd prefer we try anything and everything, to be honest. We're out of time for the luxury of waiting for the perfect solution.
Look at the MAC diagram here and then tell me we need to start with the least sensible thing first.
Good thing we're not just 'starting' with carbon capture first, and that it's part of a wide ranging series of solutions, including solar, wind etc all of which contribute positively to climate change mitigation. Indeed, it's a good thing we can achieve more than one solution at once, isn't it?
