lol. we would need a direct air capture that does not produce more carbon than it captures in its total lifecycle. So maybe doable is our totaly energy infrastructure is otherwise clean. Solar, geo, wind, hydro, nuclear, etc still produce co2 in their lfecycle. Im not sure if we will ever get resource extraction or recycling to be 100$ non co2 producing. I have not seen a direct air capture system that does not even produce less carbon than captures if its energy is not carbonless and that does not even take into account the prodcution of it and as people point out the fact it would need to be built and run with no economic incentive except for what governments produce by direct payments or carbon taxes.
