Reducing the waste (future tech) and managing it are two different things. In Sweden there are far gone plans for deep underground storage with significant R&D (www.skb.com). Though untested, as we need several thousands years to be truly sure of its effectiveness, I would still argue that it is a close to solved problem but with a fair degree of uncertainty due to its' long time span.

The big difference is that at lot of CO2 emitters doesn't have to store or pay the full price of their bi-product. It is a huge difference in incentives.
