Transforming Carbon Dioxide into Fuel

One breakthrough in science that I am excited to witness is the announcement of Carbon Sciences on transforming CO2 or Carbon Dioxide into Fuel.

This is one discovery that can really help ease our problem with global warming, not to mention the problem of every nation in regards to the ever rising prices of fossil fuel.

According to reports, 28 billion metric tons of CO2 is being released into the atmosphere each year, and this development can greatly help in our drive to help conserve our depleting natural resources, preventing ridiculous price hike for fossil fuel because of increased demand and low supply and of course to prevent further damage to our atmosphere and global warming.

This new technology will make use of inexpensive, renewable biomolecules to act as catalyst in the transformation of CO2 into basic hydrocarbon building blocks, and in turn can be used as basic fuel for different kinds of machines that uses it.

It is great to know that this process will close the carbon loop and recycling emissions.

What do you think will be the opinion of the big oil players about this discovery? If this will be implemented, this will surely fire a big blow in the oil industry.
