Taking C02 from greenhouse gas emissions. Sounds neat! But I can see there being a dark side.... at the beginning of the 21st century we have too much C02 in the atmosphere... and by the end we have too little! Maybe a good sci-fi short story in there....

Yes, agreed. And animals literally take O2 out and put CO2 into the atmosphere. There's, more or less a balance there. However, we as humans, have been dumping excessive amounts of CO2 into the atmosphere as part of our industry, wildly throwing that balance off; if we find a way to further our industry by taking CO2 out... then I can imagine the balance swinging wildly in the opposite direction.
