The technology is still a big improvement over current methods.

We already do a lot of carbon capture / sequestration (generally it's put into big underground reservoirs), so this technology doesn't introduce a new problem. Obviously we can't shove tons of CO2 underground forever, but if we're going to do it in the short term, it's still better to do so cheaply and efficiently. And I mean really, all this has to do is get us by until fusion power becomes economical, and that shouldn't be too difficult. After all, fusion is only 20 years away.

I wonder if it could work on other fuels?

But the CO2 levels in our atmosphere are 20% higher than 50 years ago

There's a certain irony to being criticized on this one from that sector

It seems pretty dubious. It still produces CO2.

Oh, I agree. My point is just that sequestration will remain an issue. *NM*

Well dense CO2 is easier to get rid of

Pretty sure putting it in the dirt would increase atmospheric levels, though. EDIT: Never mind.

Probably too little, too late.
