the doe has a publication on sequestering co2 in the basalt flows of the colombia river basin. and i think it was referenced on tod a few months ago. maybe a good idea, but at what cost ? and will power plants, for example, actually do so, or just talk about it ?

It's been talked of for quite some time, the link I posted a while back:

The main impetus behind it anymore seems to enable coal generation plants there, making the area an energy hub-nuke, hydro and coal.

The more I learn, the more I'd prefer the wind farms of Horse Heaven Hills, also talked about, and the ag and sagebrush.
