Robert,You should pass your message to the leading Climate CoLab teams for "U.S. Carbon Price."  Reconciling paradigms on a global scale is a different perspective on the "free market to include external costs" effort.The carbon reuse industry also addresses the economics of pulling the legacy CO2

Prof. Beget -- 1) can you please explain the scale of operations that would be required to achieve climatically significant reductions? 2) is there a termination scenario where SRM/CDR efforts including MEA are abruptly terminated (say, because of political disorder), warming accelerates, the cap

Dear All, MEA is not something you would want released freely in the atmosphere in large quantities, it is toxic. The whole point of using it in carbon capture is the fact that you regenerate it with heat and you continue capturing CO2 with minimal loss. This method would react the MEA with CO
