The actual title is "Carbon Capture isn't real" but they walk that clickbait back in the video, to it just being pointless.<p>So, I agree with most points made in the video, capturing carbon emitted from burning fossil fuels, is obviously dumb and we should be rolling out all the things that reduce carbon and make our lives better, before we start sucking carbon back out of the air.<p>So I agree that all the talk of Carbon Capture and Storage that the fossil fuel lobby funded, was 99% a con. They were literally saying, we'll just keep doing what we're doing and then bury the carbon via some as yet unproven method to help them stall progress on alternatives. And it was always obvious that moving to cleaner more efficient processes was better.<p>But, they then link that to a "no pain, no gain" attitude to climate change. It's only effective if you have to work hard and inconvenience yourself. Why would that be the case?<p>Having oil and gas corporations not release methane into the atmosphere and stop actually financially rewarding them for doing so, is not something that is going to affect my life negatively. Quite the opposite.<p>And it's those same oil and gas corporations, that have been telling us "climate change is fake and/or unfixable and/or expensive to fix" in an utterly cynical attempt to make people give up trying to get them to change.<p>So, there's lots of things that we can do, that will make our lives better, and fix climate change at the same time. Let's do those.<p>Not the ones that cause us the most effort. The ones that cost the least effort for the most gain are ideal, like:<p>insulation<p>efficiency<p>using heat pumps<p>electrify everything<p>stop actively subsidizing things we don't want to happen<p>track and fine methane emitters, especially the ones that are leaking publicly owned methane<p>build lots more renewables for cheap energy, especially in developing nations<p>eat as much meat (and food generally) as your doctor recommends for your health<p>carbon fee and dividends that give money to the average person and let them choose how to spend it so the free market can work.<p>Then we can start talking about the wackier ideas like geoengineering or carbon capture.
