Subject: do not go forward with carbon capture and underground sequestration
Comment:
I ask that you disapprove of carbon capture and underground sequestration since it only eliminates a part of carbon dioxide from burning fossil fuel, the part of its use at a point of application, but does not reduce the carbon dioxide released from drilling, transporting, and storage of the fuel, then transporting and sequestering. Also, it prolongs the time that carbon is brought up from underground. Also, it would be easy for industries to stop capturing carbon when they feel they need to make more money since the capture and sequestration costs are not part of the product of the industry. There will be sacrifices in the transition to not using fossil fuel, but are the lives of our grandchildren worth it? Of course, they are.
