Oh, great, a way to suck a valuable plant food out of our atmosphere. I guess we don’t need oxygen any more, and what “Pre-industrialized” era are they talking about? At one time we had much more CO2 than we do now. I tell you these climate change/global warming idiots will do and say anything to keep their scam going.

So these guys even know how lime is made?

1. Take Limestone

Even if you have a zero CO2 production energy source, step 2 is
2. Break the chemical bonds and drive off CO2

CaCO3 > CaO + CO2

Man I get a bad feeling concerning unintended consequences when I see stuff like this.

Some of my questions weren’t serious...just wanted to see knowledgeable types discuss the issue so I could be better informed!
