While this statement is true, it’s missing a lot of other concerns related to the pipeline project surrounding green washing, harm to communities, underdeveloped federal regulation, harm to ecology, and farmland.
CO2 pipelines are relatively new and more pointedly, now being bolstered by tax credits for the private companies seeking to build them at the expense of the communities they run through.
I would suggest reading the linked site in the post, they do a better job of highlighting the issues than I could.
This CO2 Pipeline burst in 2020 and the community is still feeling the effects https://www.npr.org/2023/05/21/1172679786/carbon-capture-carbon-dioxide-pipeline
And guess who benefits the most from building these pipelines? Investors and Shareholders. I think it’s worth closer consideration.
