Human ingenuity beats phony ideologies like Global Warming or Climate Change anytime! I have previously blogged e.g. here about the carbon dioxide recycling.
"... Israeli companies such as Shahar Solutions ... is developing a prototype device capable of capturing 100 percent of carbon dioxide emissions from internal combustion engines before converting it into synthetic natural gas for long-term energy storage ...
The carbon dioxide-methane production technology used by the company is based on the Sabatier reaction, a scientific principle discovered as early as 1897 ... According to this principle, both methane and water can be produced from combining hydrogen and carbon dioxide at 400°C and applying considerable pressure in the presence of Nickel, the most widely used catalyst to accelerate the chemical reaction.
Interestingly however, outside its applications for Mars-related projects, the Sabatier reaction has not been used commercially to date because of its hydrogen requirement. ..."
