'CO2 scrubber’ could help slow global warming
telegraph.co.uk — The prototype will cost about £100,000 and take about two years to construct at a laboratory in Tucson, Arizona. Environmentalists may warn that so-called technological solutions to global warming undermine attempts to promote greener lifestyles and industries.

- norman619, on 07/26/2008, -1/+2You are obviously of the opinion that CO2 drives global temperature changes when it's a long established fact that changes in CO2 levels follow changes in temps not precede them. This technology does exactly what environmentalists want yet they aren't praising it. And please keep your political BS (Mission Accomplished) references out of what should be a scientific debate not a political one.

Where is the science in your post? Looks like nothing except political BS. Here, this is what science looks like

I wonder how much energy is requires to extract a ton of C02?
