Why is Exxon so interested in Carbon Capture?

[Gateman_Wen]

and Earth has greened up quite a bit in the last 40 years.

Deforestation called to say that's not true.

Show me one of any significance. Note: Some rando on Twitter is going to get you laughed at.

Deforestation called to say that's not true.

NASA earth greening up
From a quarter to half of Earth’s vegetated lands has shown significant greening over the last 35 years largely due to rising levels of atmospheric carbon dioxide, according to a new study published in the journal Nature Climate Change on April 25.

Exxon sees carbon capture market at $4 trillion by 2050

I wonder what kind of products would require that much CO2?

I think most people don't have a clue.

 

[Lord of Planar]

Europe had a carbon dioxide shortage a few years back that almost caused a beer crisis.

That joke doesn't work for those of us who know how beer is made.

So, yes, randos on the internet. That's what you're basing this on.

Longview, there are anti-AGW people who think global warming is impossible because God wouldn't let that happen. Do you feel obligated to spend time and effort defending these stances? Some of them are even elected officials, so surely that's even more reason for you to be painted with those ideas, right?

Actually, Ive seen studies that show even with the massive deforestation by man, we have more trees to compensate in other regions.

But we're reducing the area of "vegetated lands".

Lol, it wasn't a joke. Keg beer requires carbon dioxide just like soda pop. Sorry to burst your bubble.

Bottled beer self carbonates. And you just said beer originally. Not kegged beer.

CO2 is made when the sugars ferment into alcohol. It is not necessary to add CO2. Besides, I prefer my tap beer to be pressurized with nitrogen.

Show one.

Can you show me you Jr. High science book?

I could do a search, but not going to waste m,y time. I don't care if you believe me or not. You were given knowledge you can either deny, or be skeptical of. It is up to you if you wish to research it. I'm not your teacher.

I just follow the data, and apply logic.
For about 8 years I have been saying the trend lines were in motion to replace oil based fuels with man made fuels. I keep seeing signs that this is happening.

Alright well that rando on the internet says its in gods hands, not data. Why aren't you justifying that?

Commercial breweries often add extra carbonation. Sometimes their recipes don't produce enough, sometimes processing removes too much. Europe did indeed have a carbon dioxide shortage a few years ago that almost lead to a beer shortage. Which could have been fatal in some areas.

I didn't expect that you could. Stop posting made up crap as if it's a fact. Some would call that "lying".

Last I heard deforestation was a big problem. Has that stopped?

It is, but Earth is greening faster.

E-fuels are a prohibitively expensive and remarkably inefficient way to decarbonize the transportation sector.

And we're adding a bunch of new species, too!

I asked a Ford Mechanic this, and he told me that modern cars all can compensate for better gas, just not worse.

Simply advance the timing, and build higher compression combustion chambers.

I think that takes a bit longer, but existing species could spread to the new ranges.

Ideally the only change for normal people is a different color gas pump handle.

Yeah, it's not like we're in the midst of the sixth mass extinction event, that's caused by humanity.
