Sierra Club criticized Summit Carbon Solutions for shifting its company focus from carbon sequestration to fossil fuel extraction. The company is now planning to use its pipeline to drive domestic oil and gas production through enhanced oil recovery (EOR), which involves injecting CO2 gas into wells. This pivot from its initial advertised use of sustainable aviation fuel is reportedly paralleling the policies of Donald Trump.
