One of the technologies which the federal government is helping to fund is Direct Air Capture (DAC) - selectively capturing carbon dioxide directly by blowing air through solid sorbents or liquid solvents. In this episode James Wilt (freelance journalist working with Climate Action Team Manitoba) talks with Mark about the feasibility of this technology, which is proving to be extremely costly in terms of money, energy and water.

James has written a report on DAC, which may be found at https://climateactionmb.ca/why-direct-air-capture-isnt-a-climate-solution-for-manitoba/
