Comments on: John Barry urges wide use of carbon capture and storage http://earthsky.org/human-world/john-barry-urges-wide-use-of-carbon-capture-and-storage A Clear Voice for Science Thu, 24 May 2012 15:47:15 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.2 By: hamilton http://earthsky.org/human-world/john-barry-urges-wide-use-of-carbon-capture-and-storage/comment-page-1#comment-28521 hamilton Tue, 11 May 2010 16:41:01 +0000 http://earthsky.org/?p=28495#comment-28521 i believe that the capturing of CO2 is very possible and it would help in reducing the GHG Emission and since oil is still the conventional energy for alot of production and it is at its peak, the use of CO2 to recover it is very essential. i believe that the capturing of CO2 is very possible and it would help in reducing the GHG Emission and since oil is still the conventional energy for alot of production and it is at its peak, the use of CO2 to recover it is very essential.

I was trained as a chemical engineer...CO2 is no more a pollutant than O2 is... And I agree, the key parties in the IPCC process, their data, and their methodology are clearly discredited.

In short, this will double your power bill and will double the amount of energy consumed if we do not grow our use at all. An insane idea at best. There is no altruism. Companies must make money to survive and governments want power and they are the real dangerous problem. A politician will sell his soul and your person for power. That is why we have a Constitution. The environment is fine. The future of Western Civilization is not so sure. The cost of capturing carbon from a coal or gas poer plant is one half of the energy produced.

No, I don't think so. Shell has been amazing and I believe very straightforward in their concern about climate change. They are, for example, going to have a presence at the Copenhagen Climate Summit in December. I believe them. Deborah Mocking us? No, I don’t think so.
