Because if the solution isnt actually stopping emissions its basically a feel good scam with no long term sustainability

    Ultimately it is a solution for one aspect of the problem, but not a panacea on its own. Yes we have to stop putting carbon into the atmosphere. But we also have to remove it. We could let geology take its time to do that for us, but we'd have a difficult hundred or so millennia in the interim. Might as well try to soak it all back up (powered by non-polluting forms of energy).
