  • viable low carbon energy source yet

    Not limited to energy sources either: steel production requires carbon as part of the alloy.

    In the production of cement, calciumcarbonate gets heated and emits co2.

    Both of these products can not be made without the emission of co2, even when using 100% solar and wind energy

  • 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.

  • https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acetogen is a more promising technology in my opinion. It also does not require high pressures or temperatures, has been proven to scale to tons of co2, and uses much less energy than this paper.

    This paper has the advantage of not needing a high concentration of co2 in the air. But on the other hand, such sources are readily available as a by-product of industry.
