George Monbiot argues that the UK government's £21.7bn investment in carbon capture technology is a wasteful, misguided approach to tackling climate change, driven by fossil fuel industry influence rather than effective solutions. He suggests the new prime minister should cancel this spending and redirect funds to better climate strategies.
