yes seems like a great idea, lets waste a bunch of money on machines that run on.... energy to suck plant food out of the air...

this is nothing more than a political bribe and complete waste of money

you want to look at these monstrosities rather than trees you fuckin idiot?



how much carbon is used to make the steel and all the electronics and all the garbage in these machines?

How much carbon is used to mine the ore to make the steel and then transport it?

PLANT SOME FUCKING TREES.  They capture carbon just fine and reduce temperatures, and as an added bonus are beautiful.

We could have lovely forests and nuclear power but these climate activists and the powers that be actually hate us, so yeah, you are a fucking retard.

Don't fret.  Global warming is a hoax.  We're entering a period of global cooling.  Those machines will never be built.

Are the Chinese Commies and the Indians planting trees? They still cutting down trees in the Amazon? Why not plant trees here and do this? If the machine causes a net reduction in carbon to safer levels, even accounting for the carbon caused by the manufacturing process, that would be good, wouldn't it? Plus, once one is built, presumably tech advancements will lead to more effective devices? Might as well give it a whirl. After all, you are running out of water out there in NV.

Great plan. Let's take some Illinois farmland and plant some trees. It's a win win as we would capture carbon and also stop burning ethanol for fuel, putting the carbon captured by corn back into the atmosphere.

Best place to plant them these days as it doesn't rain in the Western US anymore

The nice irony is that the Brazilians cut down trees to plant soybeans thanks to Tree Lovin Q97's buddy Trump putting up those tariffs
