UK Government Looks To Suck CO2 Out Of The Sea

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


The whole thing starts with imprecise and cultish terminology

Project to suck carbon out of sea begins in UK

A ground-breaking project to suck carbon out of the sea has started operating on England’s south coast.

The small pilot scheme, known as SeaCURE, is funded by the UK government as part of its search for technologies that fight climate change.

There’s broad consensus among climate scientists that the overwhelming priority is to cut greenhouse gas emissions, the chief cause of global warming.

But many scientists also believe that part of the solution will have to involve capturing some of the gases that have already been released.

If we’re talking about CO2, carbon dioxide, term it that way. Calling it carbon is horseshit

These projects, known as carbon capture, usually focus either on capturing emissions at source or pulling them from the air.

What makes SeaCure interesting is that it is testing whether it might be more efficient to pull planet-warming carbon from the sea, since it is present in greater concentrations in water than in the air.

You know, what could possibly go wrong? Also, is the CO2 concentration now higher than it was during previous Holocene warm periods?

The project is trying to find whether removing carbon from the water might be a cost effective way of reducing the amount of the climate warming gas CO2 in the atmosphere.

SeaCURE processes the seawater to remove the carbon before pumping it back out to sea where it absorbs more CO2.

Is it removing CO2 or just carbon, which could end up over-oxygenating the oceans?

The Seacure project has £3m of funding from the government and is one of 15 pilot projects being backed in the UK as part of efforts to develop technologies that capture and store greenhouse gases.

In other words, they’re getting almost $4 million dollars of taxpayer money to screw around.
