Carbon Capture's Limited Impact: A Critical Analysis
Global carbon capture capacity is only 50 million tons annually, a small fraction of yearly emissions, while Direct Air Capture (DAC) costs remain prohibitively high ($264-$1000 per ton), though tech and oil companies are heavily investing in these technologies to help meet climate goals.
