The fuck is activism fatigue?
Are you describing getting tired of trying to make the world slightly less shitty, to the point where you post denigrating comments saying anything that isn't "We fixed everything in one go, turns out it was easier than we all thought" as pointless?
Or are you just annoyed at the fact that people care enough about the concept of survivng the next 100 years to actually do something about it?
Activism fatigue is getting old. My friends in their 60s to 80s don't show to as many protests anymore. My dead friends show to even fewer.
Ehh, the devil is in the details. Most DAC techniques requires more energy to capture the CO2 then the energy used to produce the CO2. This particular site might not have that issue, the article doesn't say, but they are pumping the CO2 underground to be stored. Which sounds a lot like phracking... (I doubt they are pumping the CO2 into the rocks as a gas)
