Lots of people want to see more "hope" and less "doom" about climate change. But a new facility to suck carbon out of the air shows why it's more complicated than that.

The real question is how to make it profitable. Turn the captured carbon into building materials somehow?
As it stands, who pays for it? Can’t rely on government subsidies, and can’t rely on business doing it unless they’re compelled.
I wish it would work but I just don’t see how it fits in the current system at any meaningful scale.

The problem is, usually the result of this capture process comes in the form of CO2 gas. Turning that into something useful takes even more energy.
