It has no description of how economic it is, but suppose they can scale it up large enough to let us "recycle" all of our CO2. Wow.

A device to prevent Global Warming^tm?

I was thinking more along the lines of a really big sock whith shich to ram down Algore's throat.

And I'll have my pockets filled of bars of soap to throw at any of his stinky hippie friends that try to stop me...

montgomery burns had the right idea

Scientists invent device to stop Global Warming

Cool.

I have two very technical scientific questions about this

1. Do these guys have a permit to make this non-gas?

2. Are they paying road taxes on each potential gallon they to test with?

[mamelukesabre]

The problem is how to you trap and contain the CO2? I’m guessing this is the part they left out on purpose. The devil is in the details.

[Secret Agent Man]

Ummmmmmmmmmmm............

Don’t trees already take in carbon dioxide and release oxygen?

Ummmmmmmmmmmm............

it’s a proven scientific fact that more carbon dioxide will make plants/trees grow bigger (ie process more carbon dioxide, give off more oxygen).

I think this device might be better if they could build one that turns CO2 into carbon and oxygen (ie a carbon scrubber). This would be great for enclosed spaces to recycle the air and remove carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide. But it seems idiotic for trying to save the planet.

Note to scientists: WE HAVE TREES AND PLANTS THAT LOVE CO2!!!!!!

I think this will be as effective as having a bunch of liberals petition volcanoes to stop belching out more bad gases than we can all year that they can in one day.

[tubebender]

Now let me get this straight... We have millions and millions of catalytic converters on autos and lite trucks to clean up and turn unburned hydrocarbons and CARBON MONOXIDE to water vapor and CARBON DIOXIDE and now they are going to reverse that?

[The Great RJ]

I’m sure this process will be every much as successful at combating global warming as holding a series of who cares rock concerts around the world and producing a farcical pseudo science movie.

[CharlesWayneCT]

Corn? It grows in the ground, it converts C02 to Oxygen and sugar using sunlight.

Of course, scientists didn’t have a chance to invent these wonderful energy converters.

[Right Wing Assault]

You could wear one of these on your head. The CO2 you breathe out gets processed into ethanol which goes right into your bloodstream. A guy could stay drunk continually as long as there is enough light. Or he could wear a battery so he could stay drunk in the dark. What an invention.

The booze companies are going to buy this invention and then hide the details.

[det dweller too]

Rizing levels of CO2 is the EFFECT of global warming, it is not the CAUSE!

[U S Army EOD]

This same crowd also says we can control the temperature of the sun by installing a thermostadt on the surface of it. It can put in place if we go up there at night when it is cool.

[Fabozz]

As it happens, I too have invented a device to stop global warming. I of course cannot reveal the process by which it works, as that would give away my trade secret, but if the world governments pool together and pay me one billion US dollars, then I guarantee that 10 years from now, the average temperature will be no greater than it is today, and may even be a bit less.

Naturally I don't expect to be trusted blindly on this. I offer a 100% money-back guarantee: If temperatures do go up after 10 years, even by as little as one one-hundredth of a degree, then I will repay the entire $1 billion.

Patented Protective Underwear for Bad Gas Initial Press Release

UNDER-TEC Corporation of Pueblo, Colorado, and its inventor Buck Weimer, has produced a new generation of protective underwear patented to filter out the bad smell of human gas (flatulence).

Oh, damn. And here I thought they’d invented some contraption that would keep Algore’s big trap shut and prevent all that hot air from escaping and burning a hole into the ozone layer.

[depressed in 06]

This, kinda, has the ring of a cigarette tax for education, where, you need more smokers to fund education. We will have to burn more gas to make enough CO2 to make enough ethanol.

[Trajan88]

A couple billion of these should do the trick ;-)
