Cunning plan
I was unable to respond earlier to the article by Dr Richard Dixon since I needed several days to recover from the shock of realising that I actually agreed with him (“Carbon Capture doesn’t grab me”,7 July). Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) is a mythical beast beloved by politicians, climate researchers, climate engineers, those looking for research funds and those on the Climate Gravy Train. As Dr Dixon states, there is no CCS plant in the world which captures and stores all of the CO2.
However I invite Dr Dixon to help me develop my patented idea. We will buy, at a bulk discount, all the fizzy CO2 drinks in plastic bottles and store them down old mine shafts and claim government prize money. After all, if people are willing to finance dropping weights down a mine shaft to produce and store electricity then surely this joint venture merits lots of finance. Another benefit is that the plastic bottles would no longer be available to litter our streets and countryside.
