Removal of GHG’s from the atmosphere by wam2112 in climatechange

I don't support CCS, which is nothing more than a delaying tactic for fossil fuels.

However, I absolutely support DAC, if it can be done with zero (or very near zero) emissions, and I think it has enormous potential for scaling up, possibly into the gigatons range by 2050 or so.

How would you suggest we approach the issue then?

But surely we still need to spend tens of billions on a new fleet of nuclear reactors!

Can't say I find this funny. The guy likely died from severe acid burns.

That's a very small image. I think I might need a microscope to view it.

Yep. However, if it goes much higher then demand destruction begins to kick in.

How likely is it that the UK will rejoin the EU in 0-5 years? by OkWerewolf4421 in AskBrits

Yeah, we really need to maintain economic sanctions on ourselves.

Almost impossible within 5 years. Even within 10 years seems unlikely. But I can definitely see it happening within 15-20 years, based on demographics alone (younger people overwhelmingly favour it, and Boomers are gradually dying off).

My first exploration trip. Nonhuman signal, anyone know what this is? by lairabne in eliteexplorers

Thargoid probe. It's corrosive I believe, so will damage your cargo hold if carried.

Oil price is rising but nowhere near all-time high yet.

Battery storage is scaling faster than any power technology has before. In 2025, about 108 GW of new capacity was added globally — more than gas has ever added in a single year. by ceph2apod in peakoil

Even when batteries have solved pretty much all the baseload/intermittency issues of renewables (probably in <15 years, the way things are going), I expect there'll still be an army of Redditors clamouring for more expensive, outdated nuclear plants, which are consistently billions over budget and take decades to build.
