I skimmed most of it, but I’m still not sure what the fuel is. CO2 isn’t particularly useful unless you change it to something else. What’s that something else?
Comment on Solar-powered device captures carbon dioxide from air to make sustainable fuel

This article has waaayyy too much “if this actually worked worked it could be used for…” and “instead of other methods that don’t work” and waaayy to little about the actual validity of the process.
This is a general trend every fucking time an article claims to have something on CO2 or batteries or global warming. IMO this is probably because the actual idea is bullshit.
Sorry but my ADD prevented me from reading all that non content crap to see if there were actually anything real to read.
What if, instead of pumping the carbon dioxide underground, we made something useful from it
What if instead of having your head up your ass, you at this point had already written at least a teaser about how this is any better?
99% sure by now, that this is a fucking waste of time.
Please inform me if there’s any actual content.

It’s university press department stuff. That’s always shitty pop-science communication.
Then again, it works, as people post that to fora, instead of the actual research. And popularity, not quality, of work brings grants.
