CDR vs CCS

when we're talking about carbon dioxide in the air, the idea that we might mean something different between capturing it and removing it seems unintuitive. And yet we have two quite different concepts in circulation these days. This community is about CDR which is carbon dioxide removal (from the air), but there is also CCS - carbon capture and storage, and a new term gaining currency CCUS - carbon capture, utilization and storage. In this context, capture means removing CO2 from a point source emission, rather than from the mixed atmosphere. The CO2 in a point source is much more concentrated, so different technologies apply. You don't go to a orthodontics conference to present your work on new contact lenses - so don't start talking about CCS here in the CDR community; we'll just look at you funny.
