    All I’m hearing is the first experiment failed, and y’all would rather give up than fix it.

      Yeah, obviously I’d much rather that R&D budgets got spent on things that might actually make a difference rather than new ways of kicking the can down the road for future generations to deal with.

      You’re weirdly defensive about this idea. What’s up with that? Daddy got some investments in the fossil fuel industry?

          It’s not new technology, for one. We’ve been using injection wells like landfills since the 1930’s because it’s cheaper than treating and disposing of wastewater safely.
