This is a very nice discussion worth watching.

@HyperBorealOperator What is you basis: when i worked on it almost 30 years ago, they were working smoke stack scrubbers...you might not have been born then!

Hello Dr Mark Zoback, I pioneered the Carbon Sequestration Strategy and Clean Coal Burning Technology. I lived in Canada but now in Oakland. When I presented this technology to the Canadians they almost killed me. Now they take it over and are claiming it as theirs. I am pleased to give them a life.
