The #Biden administration has offered over $billion to Occidental Petroleum to develop #DirectAirCapture in the latest wheeze by #fossilfuel firms to draw down cash to develop of #carboncapture as a response to the #ClimateCrisis;
So far 30 DAC plants have been commissioned with only six being actually built (so far) & as this is an early-stage relatively un-tested #technology, one cannot help but think its another way for #oil companies to keep their main game going for a few more years!

Here's an article from April 2022 that said Orca was behind schedule in CO₂ removal because Iceland is cold (who knew?)
