Even if it works, they'll find a reason not to use it, since it was never about CO2, it was about controlling the means of production.

Aren’t all plastics a product of petroleum?

Quick, hire as many environmental scientists who specialize in this sponge to perfect the technology as possible. The surveil of the planet is a stake!

Each should be paid a reasonable sum of around $200,000 each year for about seven years and be sure to supply them with generous government grants, too.

Thank you.

Green Energy = the snake oil scam that keeps on giving.....

[DaxtonBrown]

hydrogen is one third as dense as nat gas, requiring three times the volume or three times the pressure. Various metal hydrides for storage have problems. Hydrogen also causes embrittlement of steel piping.

In short, this is all still a liberal wet dream.

President Obama's plan to cut CO2 emissions 30 percent

Arbophobe!

This is pretty moronic considering that planting a tree will do the same thing with many other added benefits.

Now if only they’d find a way to keep the sky from falling we could all live happily ever after.

[HereInTheHeartland]

Make work research to solve a phantom problem. The politicians can skim their money off the government grants that will be given.

[P-Marlowe]

Why don’t they just plant some trees?

The material—a relative of the plastics used in food containers—could play a role in President Obama's plan

That's all I need to know...

[Paladin2]

All libs should wear a mask made of this material - and have a trailer towed behind their cars to absorb same.

Here's another CO₂ sponge, . . . only bigger

[dalereed]

Correction, it has always been about making the population immobile and therefore controllable.

[Parmy]

All of this on account of .034 percent of the atmosphere.

[ModelBreaker]

I wonder what they do with all the plastic when it is used up. Turn it into plastic shopping bags and fine us for them?

[wku man]

Yeah..there are already these CO2 sponge thingys called "trees". Millions of them around...all over the world. Pretty cool how they work. What they do is soak up CO2, water and sunlight, and convert them into oxygen and glucose, through a process called "photosynthesis". I learned all about that in the 3rd grade, I think.

Every time I read about the next great idea from the “We’re Special” generation, I’m reminded of the old slogan “Don’t fool with Mother Nature.”

Sounds utterly insane, and was likely invented by some lunatic democrat that no doubt contributes to the DNC.
