Don't worry. This whole "making stuff from CO2" business is completely stupid anyway. I say this because the volumes of CO2 capture necessary for the two degree scenario (that we all just committed to in Paris) are so beyond the scale of almost anything we manufacture that it's not even funny. We're talking thousands of Hoover dams full of liquid CO2 that has to be captured, transported and stored every year.

There were agreements in Paris. Commitments have yet to happen.

  Agreeing to do something impossible is easy. Committing to doing something impossible is no harder. It's just that doing something impossible is tricky.
