Worried about the extensive land-use of renewable energies? Well, apparently we are using more land for golf courses in Europe than for wind power or for solar PV.

And there is no such thing as a "hard-to-abate" sector in case you are wondering if CC or DAC is useful for those
web.stanford.edu/group/efmh/j...
Any money spent on CC/DAC for such CO2 will also increase CO2, pollution, mining, pipes, energy costs, and social costs v spending the same on WWS
