If we let the market price of helium go up (paired with the carbon credits), could CO2 extraction from the atmosphere become an economically feasible way of counteracting global warming?

I don't know the answer to that, but just wanted to mention you would want the market price to include the cost of storing the captured CO2.

EDIT: never mind. if anyone was buying this at market value, it doesn't make sense for the buyer to store it indefinitely.
