#2 Turn the co2 into something useful instead of putting it in a landfill so to speak. Waste streams are resource streams that have not yet been utilized.

Sequestering CO2 is really stupid. And expensive. For nothing.

#5 CO2 can be helpful at getting additional oil out of some formations - but it costs more to do than the oil is worth in most cases.
Nature sequesters most CO2 by combining it with calcium - how many tons of limestone and marble are there in the world?

#6 How would YOU like to be sequestered for a million years or more, hmmmmmm??? Free the carbonate ions now!

#7 #6 LOL.

On a separate note, it would be more funny iff I'd never had any childhood dreams or visions of Land/Islands-sinking EQ Bombs being linked to Pro-US-vs-Anti-US OWG-NWO.
