lol fuck what a company thinks, what can they prove
Who
A reasonably well-known climate scientist.
Okay...
Will be interesting to see peer reviews of their work.
Don't know about the specifics in the OP but I believe it's a similar process to this:
There's a thing in Iceland that binds CO2 underground.
It's pretty cool: https://www.carbfix.com/
Here's the science behind it https://www.carbfix.com/scientific-papers
Most locations aren't like that; they're injecting into oil and gas deposits with the risk of subsequent leakage
Enhanced rock weathering is very cool if it can be made to work at scale. Most examples have issues with needing a lot of energy to mine and pulverize rocks
They are looking at using Tailings storage facilities in mining for this reason
I
with the risk of subsequent leakage
That risk is like telling:" humanity will go down due to a eruption of a super vulcano"
But i agree carbfix is no solution for global scales.

How much each change to the atmosphere has warmed the world:
Recommended actions to cut greenhouse gas emissions in the near future:
Anti-science, inactivism, and unsupported conspiracy theories are not ok here.
