    Folks need to wrap their heads around the 2nd law of thermodynamics. Converting carbon to CO2 gives us lots of energy and it will take like… way more energy to reverse that process

    Even with shortcuts like finding lots of Calcium. Gonna take a LOT of calcium which will take a LOT of energy.

        Agreed, but we can’t use carbon to sequester carbon and we aren’t building clean energy fast enough to reduce our usage of carbon, much less producing enough to overtake the burning of carbon and sequester it.
