For context, carbon capture is a tiny and expensive part of what needs doing, and will have essentially zero impact unless fossil fuel burning is cut to near zero. In practice, it's deployed at limited scale by the fossil fuels industry and major polluters as a means of buying consent for continued extraction and burning at a much larger scale.

Importantly, the law authorizing this doesn't authorize the president to reverse the ban. Trump has used it before too.

So reversing this likely means an unusual ruling from the courts, or getting congress to change things. Both possible, but take a lot more effort than simply issuing an executive order.

Discussion of climate, how it is changing, activism around that, the politics, and the energy systems change we need in order to stabilize things.

As a starting point, the burning of fossil fuels, and to a lesser extent deforestation and release of methane are responsible for the warming in recent decades: Graph of temperature as observed with significant warming, and simulated without added greenhouse gases and other anthropogentic changes, which shows no significant warming

How much each change to the atmosphere has warmed the world: IPCC AR6 Figure 2 - Thee bar charts: first chart: how much each gas has warmed the world.  About 1C of total warming.  Second chart:  about 1.5C of total warming from well-mixed greenhouse gases, offset by 0.4C of cooling from aerosols and negligible influence from changes to solar output, volcanoes, and internal variability.  Third chart: about 1.25C of warming from CO2, 0.5C from methane, and a bunch more in small quantities from other gases.  About 0.5C of cooling with large error bars from SO2.

Recommended actions to cut greenhouse gas emissions in the near future:
