OK I'll be the first to jump on the UCP. And that was a pretty rambly statement from Jean...

But I'm not sure attacking them for pitching carbon sequestration projects is really fair. Sure it evokes images of China taking on plastic waste, or other jurisdictions taking on toxic/radioactive waste. But storing carbon is a good thing, no? These are the kinds of complex engineering projects and investment that we should want.

Hhow many public dollars should go to it, and whether CCUS is capable of solving global warming are fair questions, but saying "we're open to CCUS" kind of seems like a good thing to me.
