Tippet, do you know that a lot of people really believe that CO2 can be "scrubbed" or removed with some sort of filter? Well, I guess you COULD remove it but due to entropy at a "energy cost" equal to the amount of heat produced in the intital combustion PLUS adiabatic losses; a loosing proposition much like being long INTC today.

You mention methane (CH4) well there is one REAL important difference between that gas and CO2; in the environment CO2 is ONLY reduced by green plants and methane over time participates in a variety of reactions and is slowly removed. In lots of ways CO2 is the big worry over the long haul.
