Biden admin intends to ‘invest’ $1.2B to essentially vacuum carbon from Earth's air

The Biden administration has announced that it intends to spend $1.2 billion to essentially vacuum carbon dioxide from Earth’s air.

It’s called “direct air capture” (DAC), and according to CNN, it’s very much so “akin to huge vacuum cleaners sucking carbon dioxide out of the air.”

Chemicals are then used to clean the CO2 of greenhouse gases, after which the CO2 is either stored underground or “used in industrial materials like cement.”
