Carbon capture, utilization, and storage
Carbon capture, utilization, and storage ( CCUS / CCS / CCU ) has been giving fossil fuel emitters the veneer of sustainability for half a century.

Instead, these facilities capture public funding and misdirect energy that could be used to propel us towards a just transition away from fossil fuels.
