    CNN is notorious for stretching the truth in pursuit of the class interest of their owners.

    AFAIK, the oil companies need a large volume of gas that’s free from oxygen. I wonder how energy intensive this “carbon capture” tech is compared to capturing the 78% nitrogen that makes up our atmosphere? This implementation of the technology might be worse for the environment than doing nothing.

      That’s a good point. Could it be cheaper for the company even if it takes more energy because “green” solutions get subsidies?
