I am not smart enough to get this. Can someone please explain it like I'm a 60 year old man with the wrong science degree?

I don't mind Canadian investment in private equity. The CPP, Omers, OTP etc buying private assets. This is their function and it's essential.

I do mind having Canadian Media owned by American fascists and bleeting to the masses. Or the hollowing out of corporate Canada with an american branch plant economy.

The most expensive water will eventually be from an ancient aquifer that will be the last source of uncontaminated water on earth once the glaciers are gone.

Everyone else gets Cancers.

I'm always surprised at how comfortable people are with flaunting their stupidity.

I did of course, this isn't reddit.;)

It's not a lab trial, it's a field trial. There is a ton of on paper improvements before something like this moves into the field. It's wasting resources. Think more, design more, then deploy and test in the field.

A massive scourge is US private equity buying up any successful Canadian business. Canada Goose, Tim Hortons, virtually all our private media.

Selling successful Canadian enterprise for a one time payout is, well, selling out your country.

The other problem is subsidising foreign capital to operate in Canada. How many billions have we given to US auto? If it was important enough that US auto companies needed the cash, our Federal and Provincial investments should have been in exchange for equity, like any investor. Welfare for the rich and cold hard markets for the poor is what lead us to this crisis.

Feels VERY innefficient, thus I suspect doomed from the start. Why pump water some distance to the device then from the device when you could just submerge the whole thing and save a ton of pumping energy? Better yet, place it where currents provide the pumping for free. You only need to pump the CO2 out as it's captured.

Also adding acid, then neutralizing by adding a base is added costs and input. Is there no means to recapture and reuse the acid and avoiding the base altogether?
