We are poised to make the same mistakes with carbon capture storage that we made with fracking. Did you know they are passing laws in states to exempt oil and gas companies from future liability for injected CO2?

It’s not a “mistake” at all Those supporting fracking know the damage - it’s a delaying tactic designed to keep us addicted to fossil fuels And not focus everything on building renewables

Laws can't make them exempt from everything is an interesting observation I am making about the nature of geopolitics

Hugely instructive that industry is pushing for this liability protection for CO2 storage. They know it is dangerous.
