Has anybody examined the figures in regard to CO2 sequestration. Once you add in the construction and energy requirements to actually sequestrate the CO2 the whole process starts to look like an ethanol from corn type of energy balance equation... Also has anyone considered the possibility that this CO2 might be suddenly released by accident or geological movement in an earthquake or man made screw up. Sudden CO2 releases have occurred naturally in volcanic or CO2 eruptions and have killed thousands.. This bury it and forget it option isn't considered to be acceptable for nuclear waste, but is the rage for CO2.. Seems odd to me especially when there is no firm data that proves CO2 increases in the atmosphere in the ranges we are considering makes very much difference in global temperatures at all... geology.sdsu.edu
