Coca-Cola is all woke and green. Maybe protesters should go stand in front of Coke headquarters and demand that they remove CO2 from all their carbonated products.
Crude Truckin', Short Fuse EOD and AModelCat Thank this. -
used to be a time that can of soda was "gassy" for like hours after you popped it open. and a 2 litre bottle would always "fizz" each time you opened it up..
ain't nothing in this world that says, a great burp from a "gassy soda" like the good ole days. -

8 Billion People on Earth, tick, tick, tick, to Carbon overload.
Project Bison:
Los Angeles-based Carbon Capture Inc. and Texas-based Frontier Carbon Solutions announced earlier this month “Project Bison” will officially begin operations in Wyoming next year.
For the first phase scheduled for 2023 and 2024, Carbon Capture Inc., which manufactures the actual modules (1), is expected to start removing somewhere around 12,000 tons of CO2 each year, and scale up capacity to about 200,000 tons by 2026. By 2030, operations will scale up to the removal of 5 million tons of atmospheric CO2 each year (2), roughly the emissions from one million gas-powered vehicles driven in a year.
...under the 2015 Paris Agreement, Adrian Corless, CEO of Carbon Capture, estimated that 10 billion tons of carbon dioxide will need to be removed from the atmosphere annually by 2050. (3)
......the Orca plant in Iceland, currently captures about 4,000 tons of carbon per year.
The companies have not disclosed exactly where in Wyoming the project will be located....(4)

I like how everything on their website is just renders and stuff. No actual photos of real equipment. I'll bet it never even happens.
