5 operating BECCS currently do 1.5 Mton/year per wiki. Single pilotish DAC in Squamish does 1 Mton/year.

Why do you disregard this tech?

I think its ridiculous on its face that "Plan A" is telling ourselves we'll grow, burn and bury gigatons of biomass in the back half of the century in order to excuse continuing to mine and drill for it now. Its junkie logic. It doesn't really need refuting because if you just look at it square you can't help but realize its absurd. Silly.
