If the thought of fracking gave you a panic attack – earthquakes! – then the risks associated with carbon capture should give you a heart attack. Miliband's latest wheeze is stark raving bonkers, says Chris Morrison.
Green civil war has broken out over carbon capture and hydrogen, with Net Zero zealots increasingly disputing the key technology. But the public is being kept in the dark by the mainstream media, says Chris Morrison.
In place of cheap, reliable energy, Ed Miliband has been busy summoning up green unicorns with taxpayers' cash, says Ben Pile. The latest non-solutions are carbon capture and flywheels. No, they aren't going to work.
£22bn on carbon capture? It's hard to think of a more stupid waste of public money, says Paul Homewood. At best, just 8.5m of the UK's 327m tonnes of CO2 will be 'captured' – and a load will be emitted in the process!
The Government has pledged nearly £22bn for carbon capture and storage projects in a move that has united sceptics and alarmists in condemnation of the expensive and unproven technology.
Climate alarmists have turned on carbon capture and storage, branding the green technology a "colossal waste of money". Its real crime in their eyes, says Chris Morrison, is allowing the wicked oil companies to carry on.
The 'Green Blob' has told the Government to spend £30bn trying to remove CO2 from the air using experimental technology that will likely fail and would do no good even if it worked.
The Climate Change Committee's Net Zero plan involves pumping compressed CO2 with the energy of 500 Hiroshima bombs into the ground under our feet every year. Are they mad?
The Net Zero crisis deepens as the Government says it is only planning to build just over a quarter of the carbon capture capacity the Climate Change Committee says is needed to hit the green target.
The Government's hydrogen policy is a crime against thermodynamics, says David Turver. It makes no sense to lose half the energy converting methane to hydrogen, only to mix it back in with the natural gas supply.
