I noticed in #LoserThink that @ScottAdamsSays touches on investment in carbon capture technology and investments. Here are some relevant posts from 2019 about that exact thing.
Secretary Perry Announces $24 Million in New Projects to Advance Transformational Carbon Capture Technologies

Dept of Energy Announces $100M in Investments in Coal FIRST

"(R&D) projects that will help develop plants that:
...
Use innovative and cutting-edge components that enable improved efficiency and have near zero emissions with carbon dioxide (CO2) capture"

"They also discussed ongoing and future bilateral work on an all-of-the-above energy strategy ranging from energy efficiency and renewable development to civil nuclear, carbon capture utilization and storage (CCUS) and the protection of critical energy infrastructure."
U.S. and Egypt Launch Strategic Energy Dialogue

justtherealnews.com/exec-depts/ene…
"Through this Dialogue, the U.S. and Egypt will cooperate on a number of shared areas of interest across the energy sector, including but not limited to enhancing energy trade, clean coal technology, carbon capture utilization and storage, ..."
"...bio-economy, energy efficiency and renewable energy, green building technologies, smart grids and energy capacity building."
U.S. Department of Energy Announces $110M for Carbon Capture, Utilization, and Storage

These FOAs further the Administration’s commitment to strengthening coal while protecting the environment. Carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) is increasingly becoming widely accepted as a viable option for fossil-based energy sources—
such as coal- or gas-fired power plants and other industrial sources—to lower their carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions.
DOE’s program has successfully deployed various large-scale CCUS pilot and demonstration projects, and it is imperative to build upon these learnings to test, mature, and prove CCUS technologies at the commercial scale.
A recent study by Science of the Total Environment found that DOE is the most productive organization in the world in the carbon capture and storage field.

***Hmmm, don't hear that much do you? Here's the study: sciencedirect.com/science/articl…***
***Also from that one:***

Projects selected under this new FOA shall perform the following key activities: complete a detailed site characterization of a commercial-scale CO2 storage site (50 million metric tons of captured CO2 within a 30 year period);
U.S. Department of Energy Invests $56 Million in Coal Technology Projects

"The selected projects support DOE’s Carbon Storage Research Program by improving characterization and prediction of subsurface fluid movement and enhancing real-time measurement of critical subsurface properties."

We call on you to emphatically and unequivocally support and protect these employees to your fullest abilities, including by issuing statements of support and ensuring they are not subject to any act of reprisal.
We are writing you, and not Sec. Pompeo, because his silence to date speaks volumes. He has failed to stand up for the Dept’s own people, despite their steadfast service to our country, despite their dedication to public service without regard to party, president, or politics.

THE PRESIDENT:  Thank you very much.  Thank you very much.  We have another big record stock market day and another record in the stock market in the history of our country, which, to me, means jobs and a lot of other things.
We’re doing really well, and I just wanted to let you know.  I think it’s the 119th day that we’ve set a record.  So that’s good stuff.  (Applause.)

I am reaching out to you because I want to secure Just The Real News for all of us. This started out back in December 2018 with an idea. I secured JustTheRealNews.com late one evening and that was when things became real. My hat had been thrown into the ring.

Today we launched World Energy Outlook 2019 #WEO19, our flagship report.

Here are my key takeaways from this exceptional piece of work that provides wide-ranging insights into how today's decisions will shape our energy future.

→ iea.li/2CC8DdJ

1/
It's important to note that #WEO19 does not provide a forecast of what will happen.

It provides a set of scenarios that explore different possible futures, the actions or inactions that bring them about, and the interconnections between different parts of the system.

2/
Deep disparities define the energy world, notably the gaps between:

• The calm in oil markets & growing geopolitical tensions
• The urgency to tackle climate change & rising emissions
• The promise of energy for all & 850m people lacking electricity

A sticking plaster over a gangrenous wound at the very most. Reaching net zero does not even meet the needs of last year's UN report, which argued that coal use must be *entirely eliminated* by 2050. #SocialismorExtinction bbc.co.uk/news/amp/scien…
Net zero does not mean zero. It means that emissions will be met by off-setting by 2050. Companies *can* continue to emit as much as they like, as long as they plant trees or, more likely, invest in carbon capture technology to offset their emissions.
One evident problem: there is no need for companies in Britain to lower emissions or even become *hypothetically* carbon neutral until 2050 under this legislation. Theoretically, they can even continue to produce a greater degree emissions until that date.

For clarity. When i say #showertime. I mean when the government puts drugs in your shower head, and you're dosed every time you take a shower. You'll be easily manipulatable, and appear crazy to the regular John.
You might also be impartial to taking showers, exhibiting all the symptoms of "mental illness". (and or smelling and looking like shit). So Obamas church crew, being led by "#mentalhealth professionals, local law enforcement officials" can come and get you. Under #ExecutiveOrder
But can you prove it to a Judge like Jeffrey Steven White??

Perhaps you’ve seen or read @jerry_jtaylor of @NiskanenCenter critique of the #GreenNewDeal. It’s a smart and searing piece. He gets a lot right. But he also misses some important points. My (lengthy) thoughts on his (lengthy) article in a THREAD. niskanencenter.org/blog/an-open-l… 1/
@jerry_jtaylor @NiskanenCenter First the GND links inequality and climate because its framers believe these crises are linked. And it’s hard to argue with their point: the wealthy emit more carbon than the poor--who will also struggle more with the transition. So maybe climate and inequality…are linked? 2/
@jerry_jtaylor @NiskanenCenter Further, he is skeptical of the pro-union provisions. But I think the idea of throwing some support for unions into the GND is likely a good move to build a broader coalition on the left. 3/

Why do we keep falling short on #carbon pricing? (And what to do about it)

A thread on how policy can accelerate the pace of progress towards a low-carbon #energy system commensurate with the threat posed by #climatechange...
Putting a price on carbon.

The IPCC report on holding global warming to 1.5°C released Sunday calls for it. A share of the Nobel in Economics was awarded to William Nordhaus this week for championing it. It's arguably the most efficient and powerful climate policy available.
So why do governments around the world keep falling short on carbon pricing, and how can break this logjam? I discussed these challenges with the @NYTimes @BradPlumer in an article appearing in yesterday's paper. nytimes.com/2018/10/08/cli…
