This passage is adapted from material published in 2019.
In 2018, the U.S. Congress passed the 45Q legislation," which significantly increases corporate tax credits for various uses of $$CO_2$$, (carbon dioxide). The most controversial use is “enhanced oil recovery". An oil company purchases $$CO_2$$, transports it by pipeline and injects it into depleted oil wells, pushing out extra oil it could not extract by conventional means. A climate change solution that entails producing more fossil fuels may sound Orwellian, and some environmental critics have attacked 45Q as just another fossil-fuel subsidy program in disguise. But enhanced oil recovery appears to reduce current emissions because the captured $$CO_2$$, typically from natural gas or ethanol refineries, gets sequestered underground. Some environmentalists, such as Kurt Waltzer of the Clean Air Task Force, argue that turning carbon capture into an energy technology, rather than an emissions technology, is the first step toward broad commercial adoption of $$CO_2$$ removal. lt turns recaptured $$CO_2$$ into a product to be bought or sold rather than simply a cost to be endured.
