Since WWII not one congressperson has figured out how to safely store nuclear waste and now legislators want us to trust them with storing CO2.

It is entirely too risky storing captured CO2. Leakage is far too dangerous whether stored in its gaseous state in various deep geological formations (including saline formations and exhausted gas fields), liquid storage in the ocean, or solid storage by reaction of CO2 with metal oxides to produce carbonates.

We have the intellect, creativity, technology and means of implementation to redefine our energy grid with renewable energy.

What we don’t have are congresspersons willing to separate themselves from fossil fuel money and make the required investments in a healthy future–nor the public outrage to force them to at least feign a change in their behavior.
