Hi All
Any possible solution to any problem is a threat to all the other
possible solutions. We must therefore reject all of them even if we
really need all of them together.

"Summary: Carbon removal techniques, while important for fighting climate change,
have faced resistance from some in the environmental community due to their perception as
a threat to the deployment of other climate change mitigation techniques. Recently, the
view that carbon removal is a complement, not a substitute, for other mitigation
approaches has gained mainstream acceptance — a positive development that will hopefully
help carbon removal solutions emerge in sustainable and appropriate manner for fighting
climate change."
"1. Carbon removal technologies are NOT an excuse to continue business as usual.
.....
2. Carbon removal technologies will NOT allow us to delay action on fighting
climate change.
.....
3. Research into carbon removal helps balance resources from other, more
immediate mitigation options.
......
Conclusion
It is great news that the scientific community is increasing its efforts to bring
carbon removal solutions into the same light as the rest of the mitigation family,
and although there are legitimate reasons to doubt the potential for negative
emissions technologies, their potential threat to other mitigation techniques is not
one of them."
