Delicious Carbon Capture
I subscribe to many information sources, but occasionally, a lead for a really good paper comes from our local paper in the Livermore Valley, “The Independent.” This paper covers the usual breaking news, sports and community events, but also covers major government facilities in the valley, like Lawrence Livermore National Lab (LLNL) projects.
Your author enjoys a few glasses of wine and occasionally beer. However, I tend to favor the beverage made from grapes, because (1) in my earlier years I was an amateur winemaker, and (2) the Livermore Valley is a major Winery Region, with over 40 wineries.
You ask: “What the heck does Wine have to do with carbon capture or National Labs? Ah-ha, Gotcha!
