    If it can’t be made to work, we’re fucked. It sucks that we’re dependent on making an unproven technology work, but that’s what we’ve come to.

      The issue is that it continues to be sold as if it does work. It’s been used as leverage when proposing more oil projects, and as a greenwashing panacea for politicians, for 20+ years now, despite that it’s complete vapourware.

      They needed to made to work before it was used as an excuse to drill-baby-drill. Not 30 years later.

        Yeah many things should’ve been done 30 years ago. That’s irrelevant now. The only thing that matters is what is done now.
