The Price of Carbon is Zero

Here’s a good article on the history of carbon capture and storage (CCS).  Why has the goal of preventing the exhaust from the burning of fossil fuels from entering the atmosphere been so elusive?

Not to give anything away, but the author points out something that I talk about constantly: the price of carbon (and mercury, and selenium, etc.) emissions is zero.  The damage to our lungs and to our environment is dismissed as if it doesn’t exist at all; more accurately, it’s blithely passed along for our children – and their children to – clean up.
