St Ives Bay carbon capture trial ‘very low risk’ – report
FEBRUARY 13, 2024
By Paul Homewood
 

Plans to add magnesium hydroxide to the sea at St Ives Bay in a bid to combat climate change are "very low risk", according to an independent review.

Planetary Technologies and South West Water want to carry out a carbon sequestration trial.

They want to remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and lock it in the sea by adding the alkaline mineral.

The independent review of the plans was carried out by the Water Research Centre (WRc).

The Environment Agency (EA) is yet to decide whether the trial will go ahead.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

‘very low risk’:  "Government speak: this could make Hiroshima look like a pop gun.
