The problem is that this is a physical process that’s extremely hard to scale. If I recall correctly CO2 recapture uses more energy than we got from releasing it. Now think about how much energy we burn as a species and how we’re not only supposed to offset that with fully green tech but then also expand that green tech to generate so much electricity that we can recapture carbon.
Fission is really the only solution but even that is enormously expensive.
