Year 2044: Yellow powder that was used to combat carbon emission has given the entire Earth cancer. People are encouraged to wear masks and goggles until a cure is discovered.

Ironic, as a quantum leap is the smallest possible change 😄

I think exploring carbon capture, and funding smaller projects is fine but I don’t accept the oil industry using it as an excuse to keep doing what they’re doing and hamper transitions to renewables.

We will still need oil/fossil fuel for some fuel applications, lubricants and some plastics. But it can be far, far less than what we use today, and like smoking, it’s being propped up by these companies and some international governments.

Companies: “We can pollute with reckless abandon now? Okay!”

Is there anything tumeric can’t do?!

I do like carbon capture as an idea, I just hate that it’s being seen as a cop-out by (mostly) conservative politicians.

I love the idea of carbon-capture soap especially. Think I’ll try getting a bar or two when I run out of the handsoap bars I currently have.

Plants are many other of magnitude better than this.
Consider this result they got (and how expensive it must be) :

If i took a small step for every world changing quantum leap that gets reported in the media id have circled the earth by now to witness how it barely made a difference.
