Thoughts on the planned CO2 pipeline? (lemmy.robotra.sh)

Admittedly my partner has been following this closer than myself but I was curious what peoples’ thoughts are regarding the planned co2 pipeline that would run through Sangamon (and other neighboring counties).

For those not in the know:

It’s worth mentioning that co2 distribution is dangerous and probably shouldn’t be buried under peoples’ private property, just my $.02.

I'm not in Illinois so I don't have a stake in it, but if that is the primary concern besides side effects of actual construction, maybe having the company install CO2 concentration detectors and alarms? Seems pretty dumb if they aren't already, they aren't that expensive.
