    It is, but not industrial types of it. You basicly use plants and make sure they do not rot ones they die. Stuff like planting trees and turn them into coal, which you then throw into an old coal mine. The best ones would be algae. The most like way the PETM ended was by having algae grow in the artic, which then died due to frost and sunk to the bottom of the sea to form oil and gas.

    Basicly we need to put fossil fuels back under the ground. That could be done on some scale, but unless we stop extracting them first, it is pretty useless. However long term it is a decent option to reduce carbon in the atosphere.

      Yeah, I’ve noticed that the latest fossil fuel propaganda tactic is “No, wait, don’t regulate us, industrial carbon capture will totally save us, bro, just wait and see, it’s the only real solution to climate change, bro, I swear.”

      It’s mystifying to me that oil companies are actually Saturday morning cartoon villain levels of stupidly evil.
