It makes no sense to dig up coal, burn it to CO2, mix it to the atmosphere, concentrate the CO2 from the atmosphere, try to convert it to some denser form and try to push it back underground. Instead, reducing energy usage and replacing fossil energy with cleaner forms yields much more CO2 reductions per dollar. The oceans are absorbing CO2 as we speak. The less we emit, the more they can absorb. They are warming and their ability to absorb will lessen. Think about the derivatives. We are building new coal plants. Yearly emissions are increasing. First stop building new coal plants. Then start shutting old ones down. When no coal plant is running, then do carbon capture.
