It would cost $1.2 to $1.4 trillion 164tn - equivalent to the past two centuries of the entire world's GDP, to capture and sequester the #1 gigatonnes of carbon required to take the planet back to pre-Industrial revolution levels, according to Michael Barnard . That means that capturing and sequestering the 1,172 gigatonnes would cost about $140 trillion to $164 trillion USD. He also said it would take the past two centuries to sequester the amount of carbon produced in the past two centuries . Instead, he argues, the solution to the The Future is Electric emissions problem is to "decarbonise electrical generation" and then "electrify everything".
