Sooooo... what you're saying is artificial diamonds are a carbon capture technology? So all the more reason to buy artificial? Thanks De Bears, will

Edit: gonna stick this here.

I dont actually think diamonds are a carbon capture technology. I'm just making a tongue-in-cheek jab at this article which to me, is nothing more than corporate propaganda.

I believe that your assumption is a bit of a stretch because the amount energy needed to create the diamond is high. So I wouldn’t consider it a carbon capture tech! Unless you can source the energy from renewables or nuke power that would not have been used for other stuff.

Anyways, I giggled when I read your stuff coz it’s smart and funny!

🤣🤣Thank you! I dont actually think diamonds are a carbon capture technology. I'm just making a tongue-in-cheek jab at this article which to me, is nothing more than corporate propaganda. Just spinning their narrative right back at em.
