Ifølge klimajournalist Kiley Price er havet snart ikke i stand til at absorbere mere CO2. Derfor vil Singapores nationale vandforsyningsagentur i samarbejde med en række partnere, herunder CO2-fangst firmaet Equatic, opføre en kæmpe fabrik, der skal suge CO2 ud af havet.
Fra artiklen: “Last May, a U.N. panel called the carbon capture industry “unproven,” with “unknown” risks, and questioned its economic viability due to high operating costs. But the U.S. federal government is certainly making big bets on research that will help enhance the ocean’s ability to remove carbon from the atmosphere. In October, the Department of Energy (DOE) allocated $36 million in funding to “advance marine carbon dioxide removal techniques” (Equatic is not part of this initiative, but has received funding from the DOE).”
