If carbon came out of the ground, it has to go back into the ground. Klaus Lackner backcarbongrind Change image and share on social
A car produces about one pound of CO2 per mile. There is no problem with collecting the CO2 in the tailpipe, but one might easily end up with a trailer hitched to the car for carrying all this CO2 back to the filling station. The gas burned from a 15-gallon tank would fill up five 60-inch-tall gas bottles. Klaus Lackner backbottleburn share on social
Fossil fuels will run out not because of limited resources but because of the environmental impact. If I can solve that impact, I have basically increased the resource base by a vast amount. Klaus Lackner amountbasebasically Change image and share on social
If we want to stabilize the carbon dioxide in the atmosphere at some level - it really doesn't matter which level - you end up having to stop emissions virtually completely. Klaus Lackner atmospherecarboncompletely Change image and share on social
In a well-monitored storage site, it is always possible to release CO2 in a controlled manner in the unlikely event that it threatens to escape. Such a release is certainly no worse than ignoring the emission in the first place. Klaus Lackner badlyco2control share on social
My personal view is the true long-term storage is mineral carbonates, which is some form of accelerated weathering. Klaus Lackner acceleratecarbonateform Change image and share on social
