It worked perfectly but the purpose is not what you think it is. This facility in Alberta captures Carbon produced by the Scotford Complex, a Petrol Oil Refinery. It was never, ever, going to reduce CO2 in the atmosphere, it was just going to make the adjacent facility produce slightly less. The problem is, of course, that the Hydrogen being used in operations is from a source that puts off more greenhouse gasses than the facility can sequester. We do have the technology to produce Hydrogen more cleanly, but clearly that isn’t in the budget.
Why would we trust the people who are putting us in this mess to put us out of it? It’s stupid. Confiscate their profit and fund clean energy research with that money

I’m not trusting them to do anything, I’m explaining how the facility works. We can understand things without advocating for them and vice versa.
