Quite possibly—and not before time

The Economist | "Global Thermostat… and myriad startups worldwide, are attracting capital. Occidental plans to build 100 large scale DAC facilities by 2035. Others are trying to mop up CO2 produced by power plants and industrial processes before it enters the atmosphere, an approach known as carbon capture and storage (CCS). In April, ExxonMobil unveiled plans for its newish low-carbon division, whose long-term goal is t

Many of the teams seeking federal money to build direct air capture megaprojects in the United States have one thing in common: They include academic institutions.

That’s distinct from typical applicants for Department of Energy funding programs, experts say. It is largely due to the emerging nature of direct air capture technology — a collection of fans, filters and piping that removes carbon dioxide from the atmosph
