Carbon dioxide domino

Three litres of CO2 in a "domino piece". Professor Mercedes Maroto-Valer works at the Centre for Innovation in Carbon Capture and Storage at the University of Nottingham. More science at http://www.test-tube.org.uk/

How much carbon dioxide is produced in capturing and condensing 3 litres of carbon dioxide?

Already developed millions or years ago. They're called plants.

@gassyoldman wrong the polar caps won't cause the sea levels to rise but another thing will the expansion of the volume of the water caused by lower density which water get's at lower temperature or at higher temperature. because Ice has less density than water at 0ºC and water above 0º have lower density as well. and when density is lower pressure sinks and volume gets bigger. The weather won't change much. England might even get sunny weather instead of the constant rain.

@07734world Carbon dioxide is a "Greenhouse Gas". The sun's heat can get in, but the earths heat can not get out so well. The planet is getting warmer. A few degrees more and we have a runaway effect. All the ice caps will melt, the seas will expand, coastal flooding, massive weather changes, a disaster.

I think that was a poe of young earth creationists.

@gassyoldman but why is CO2 bad??? why capture it?

[gassyoldman]

@07734world because they could release more than they capture!!

[07734world]

@gassyoldman why does that matter?

@Mikemenn Lol who the fuck believes in god!?

@Mikemenn That's what she said.

RE: ... 'They are called plants'

... but they are not enough nowadays. The rapid increase of CO2 in the air means that each year we are going deeper and deeper in the CO2 sht.

Storage is a good step forward, but it is not enough. We need recycling of CO2 at the speed it is produced, and besides if it is recycled to carbon it should be in such a form that it could not be burned back (in CO2),

With the increase of the concentration the chances of dealing with the problem are dramatically reduced.
