By now, everyone is experiencing the consequences of President Joe Biden’s war on fossil fuels. From horrendously high gasoline prices to the cost of cooling and heating homes and businesses, people are suffering the consequences of Biden’s Green New Deal enthusiasm. Of course, high energy prices are a significant cause of inflation. The production and transportation of goods and services require fossil fuels, for the most part. Food prices have been particularly inflated, as anyone who has been to the supermarket can attest.

Carbon capture has often been touted as an alternative to dealing with climate change that does not involve laying waste to the fossil fuels industry with the attendant misery inflicted on consumers. Whether it is developing power plants that capture carbon dioxide instead of belching it into the atmosphere or finding ways to suck carbon dioxide out of the air, such as by planting trees or through more exotic methods such as Project Vesta’s “green sand” approach, carbon capture holds a great deal of promise.
