My #CDR friends on twitter got mad at me for pointing out that the four regional Direct Air Capture (#DAC) Hubs under the Inflation Reduction Act (#IRA) specify a minimum CO₂ removal capacity of 50,000 tonnes/year.

Hence, each DAC Hub is a #time #machine that takes us back only about 40 seconds a year!

It's important to point this out because some people think CDR is a replacement for #decarbonization and that can never be the case.
