I suspect there will be a point where economics don't matter anymore and we don't have a choice.
I agree, but until we're a lot closer to zero carbon emissions than we are now, capture technology should be treated as research. Prototypes, even proof of scalability prototypes are fine, but they should not be sucking resources from emission reduction or, worse, trying to replace emission reduction.
100%! But the research is still vital, and we should be doing more of it while being way more aggressive about carbon reduction.
We are WAY past that point
I disagree only on a technicality - economics still matter for decision making, in the minds of people who are in power of making those decisions. Otherwise yeah, things are past the point of no return. Mitigation is all we can hope to do I think.
