As much as I agree with the implication that O&G companies latch on to every potential carbon sink as a way to greenwash themselves, carbon capture does have merits.

However, the only ones who can utilize carbon capture on a significant scale are the ones who produce a lot of carbon to begin with. Technology will have to advance drastically for it to be a carbon sink effective enough to offset emission to the point where emission cuts can be scaled down.

Source: Last year I was involved in surveyon an area that was planned for huge-scale carbon storage after capture.

Rtx on/off meme template;

"Off" is a greyscale picture of metacat struggling with manual dependencies. Possibly combined with "Isn't there a better way?" from ye olde shopping channel ads.

"On" Is a HDR image of a smiling metacat having no such issues. In the background a rainbow can be seen over a flowery garden, in which people are holding hands with rabbits frolicking in the grass.

Yeah yeah, I know, I'll go to bed now...

If I remember correctly, a sequel has been in development hell for years.

I finally have the time and money to start on my PPL-A license. I only have a few hours logged, but I'm getting there eventually.

Create a linux mint install USB. When you boot from it, you'll be in a fully functional linux OS, without installing anything. This way you can try it out before making a commitment.

Although a recurring recommendation is to install linux on a second PC to try it for a while.

I support it in principle, but I prefer to install from scratch as I'm picky when it comes to partition schemas and filesystems.
