Global Mining Giant Announces $400 Million Program To Cut Emissions
This week, Australian mining giant BHP announced a US$400 million Climate Investment Program intended to cut emissions from its own operations as well as those emissions generated by its customers. BHP CEO Andrew Mackenzie gave a speech on Tuesday at a Financial Times’ Climate for Change speech held in London, in … [continued]
“That Was Quick” Category: Carbon Engineering Partners With Occidental To Pump More Oil
As predicted, Carbon Engineering’s air-carbon capture solution to be used by oil majors such as Occidental for enhanced oil recovery to no climate benefit.
Chevron’s Fig Leaf Part 8: Carbon Engineering’s Diesel? Just Put Energy Into Tesla Semi Instead
If Carbon Engineering is making e-diesel, driving the same distance in a freight truck would cost at least 6.5 times as much and have 16 times the CO2 emissions as just using electricity in a Tesla Semi.
Chevron’s Fig Leaf Part 7: Carbon Engineering’s Fuel Is At Best 25x The Cost, 35x…
Carbon Engineering will produce transportation fuels that cost 18-25 times more and have 22-35 the CO2e emissions as just using electricity in an EV
Chevron’s Fig Leaf Part 6: Carbon Engineering’s Air-To-Fuel Plan Is Even Worse
Carbon Engineering is planning to build high-cost and comparatively high-emission transportation fuels by combining their expensive CO2 with hydrogen which they will get via expensive electrolysis.
Chevron’s Fig Leaf Part 5: Who Is Behind Carbon Engineering, & What Do Experts Say?
Air carbon capture, especially as Carbon Engineering is doing it, is a fig leaf for the fossil fuel industry.
Chevron’s Fig Leaf Part 4: Carbon Engineering’s Only Market Is Pumping More Oil
Carbon Engineering’s solution is only useful in tapped-out oil wells and as greenwashing for fossil fuel companies.
Chevron’s Fig Leaf Part 3: Carbon Engineering’s Scale & Power Problems
Carbon Engineering’s solution would require 2-kilometer long, 20 meter high walls of noisy fans to capture 4 orders of magnitude less carbon than would be useful.
Chevron’s Fig Leaf Part 2: Carbon Engineering Burns Gas For 0.5 Tons Of CO2 For…
Carbon Engineering’s solution is a natural gas hog that produces a half ton of new CO2 for each ton captured from the air.
