Hydrogen at least has it's uses in stuff like planes.
That is just not what the article means when it talks about carbon capture
To be fair you can use the captured carbon for building or for carbon rivers so its not completely useless. Just way to expensive.
Problem the first: carbon capture is too expensive
Problem the second: when you do carbon capture you get CO2 gas
I'm starting to like the idea of growing forests, cutting down those forests, cooking the wood to ~~charcoal~~ activated carbon (in solar furnaces perhaps) and storing near pure solid carbon
