Chlorophyll and cellulose grow well right here and there are oceans full of water for plants [with deionizing]. Australia, the Sahara, Gobi, and parts of the USA are quite barren so there's no shortage of places to grow fuel crops. I'd back that before launching rockets to the Moon.

But easier still is to pump oil, dig coal and mine uranium. I don't think we have a CO2 problem. At present CO2 emission looks like a solution rather than a problem. If CO2 gets to 500 ppm or 1000 ppm things might be a bit different.
