Fess up! You didn’t read the whole article.
I did, but the part about where they will put it, a containment facility reminds me too much of Ghost Busters when they have to put the ghosts in a Laser Grid Containment system and Mr Peck from The EPA suts it down.
As someone else has said, if it works, companies would be jumping all over themselves to get it. Every dept. store, gas station and mini market would be knocking their doors down!
Be very wary of dealing with these with people from the same country as Englebert Humperdink. (Not his real name) Or Tom Jones (Not his real name, either ... Whoa Oh Oh)
Well, nobody believed two bicycle mechanics from Ohio could do what the finest minds of the age couldn't do...build a machine that flies.
Do they get sued when global cooling starts a new Ice Age?
It is bad enough that we have to pump gas. Now they want us to change nappies, too.
The “Pond Scum” solution!
Anyone else remember the Lil’ Abner series about a car that ran on smog?
Celtic ping list-
Slow day....
Though a lymiric or two might carry it:
Three men were in a Welsh pub
They had an idea for a scrub
They’d sell you a box
Claiming carbon, it locks
Now what price is this rub?
Thank you, that’s my only attempt- if you visit this thread!
“Although the box the men currently use for demonstration is about the size of a bar stool, they say they can build one small enough to replace a car exhaust that will last for a full tank of petrol.”
10 gallons of gas weighs about 66 pounds; when burned that produces about 220 pounds of CO2.
It takes about five minutes to fill your gas tank, how long would it take to change your 250 pound muffler?
I think I know why the writer uses a bar stool as his frame of reference.
We passed that signpost five months ago; we’re on “The road to riches” now.
Avoid redundancy; eschew obfuscation; respect your betters.
But there was a real Englebert Humperdinck, Hansel...
By then they’ll be rich enough to hide out in Equador.
Now they need to make a model suitable for municipal coal-fired powerplants. They could recycle all the carbon and we would never run out of anything again. Forever.
Why does my green box car have to look so pussified?
Just curious really... Why can’t it look like a big old giant Ford F250 or a ‘64 Camaro?

Those guys above are from South Wales... if these three are in Queensferry (the by-line) then they are almost in Cheshire and don’t even need a funny Welsh name for their company...:^)
Und in a frimlous manner.
Are you new here?
Anything that is remotely deemed “green” or “Environmentally friendly” Freepers must bash it and question it’s validity then follow up with a quip about their 8 cylinder caddy or hummer.
Get with the group think, man!
