Two questions:

1) Is it cheaper to get CO2 gasses from fossil fuel based power production or as a byproduct of liquid nitrogen production?

2) Do you think it's feasable to capture CO2 or CH4 from the air in such quantities to delay global warming?

There actually has been quite an impact in the dutch tech sector from the trade war. Sometimes beneficial because some european alternatives to chinese products were suddenly more competitive/stable. Sometimes bad ones too. I couldn't tell you if it was a good or bad one though.

What do you think about the narrative some people have saying that nitrogen emission laws were known for quite some time but the sector neglected to adapt, and now is suddenly forced by law to adapt fast and rigorously? In the same narrative Groen Links "warned" about this, but couldn't act since they weren't in a coalition or had not enough support in the governnement? This would make the VVD the "bad guys" who failed to act.

This is not neccesarily my viewpoint, but it's one I've heared and I have trouble estimating what's actually true or not in this.
