Direct Action: GE Research Gets Into Direct Air Capture to Tackle Legacy CO2
Fighting today’s emissions is one kind of project, but what about fighting yesterday’s? The world has been pumping out carbon dioxide since the industrial revolution, building a mountain of CO2 that won’t be dislodged by new solar power or electric vehicles. An emerging approach to attack this legacy CO2 is direct air capture, or DAC.
