I have already got a method for converting CO2 to useful chemical feed stocks using sunlight of particular wavelengths. My method doesn't require expensive ruthenium/rhenium catalyst and is a self propagating crystalline structure based on carbon chains which means I can even use the CO2 from the initial process to produce further CO2 reduction surfaces.

My method can produce a great range of chemicals many of which are suitable as food supplies for both animals and humans. All I require is land to install the conversion systems and some water as a reactant with the CO2 to form the chemical outputs.

Once the reactions have run their course, the chemicals can be collected, sorted for specialty applications, or used directly as feed stocks for further reactions such as ethanol or polymer production, or as fuel for electricity or people [corn and beans are particularly useful as human fuel - yum].
