UK selects two carbon capture schemes for fast track:

Last year the UK emitted around 326m tonnes of carbon. Under upgraded plans published on Tuesday, the government said it would need four CCS schemes by 2030 to capture 20m to 30m tonnes a year across the economy. Developers argue all five projects would be needed to help the UK achieve net zero.
Something wrong with the maths here...?

Economists and economic commentators are generally not good
at doing "hard sums", they only need to know the "answer" they
are expected to get.
Overconfidence, not just expert overconfidence but general overconfidence,
is one of the most common illusions we experience. Stan Robinson
