    Yes, a catalytic converter for CO2, essentially.

      Unfortunately, the whole point of combustion is to release the chemical energy stored in the carbon-carbon bonds in hydrocarbons so that we can harness some of that energy for useful purposes. If you want to break them apart only to put them right back, then you may as well just leave that petroleum in the ground. Which I'm guessing you would be okay with.
      If you don't change the world today, how can it be any better tomorrow?

        I'm fine with taking the petroleum out of the ground if we can find some way of uptaking the CO2. Poke a big pipe down into the mantle and pump it down there. What could go wrong?

            There is an irony that a guy who had solar panels removed from WH and didn’t believe in this is now in danger of losing his library.
            Agree that it would be horrible to lose the stuff inside
