Carbon Dioxide, on a practical basis, can be reclaimed from our environment and then be converted, recycled, into liquid hydrocarbon fuels.
If you've followed our posts at all over the years, you will know that fact has been well-established by at least one impeccable source: The United States Navy.

We've documented many times that Coal Ash can be added to Portland-type Cement, PC, as a reactive substitute for some of the sand and gravel aggregate traditionally used, with the result being Portland-type Cement Concrete, PCC, that is both stronger and more resistant to chemical attack and deterioration than conventional PCC.

First, a few forewords:
Aside from the enclosed document, our discussion herein is more "political" in nature, more of an argumentative dissertation, than our usual reportage of Coal-related science news and technical developments.
We transmit it only at the request, the urging, of one of our casual, part-time advisors, a former chemist, who, in fact, her patience worn out, is abandoning our effort, after having helped to compose our presentation herein. The quality of what we provide in terms of technical explication in the future will likely suffer to some extent, as will perhaps the quality our composition.

Lasse Swärd: Island som ett grönt Saudiarabien - DN.SE
The above link will take you to "Dagens Nyheter", or, literally, we're told, "Today's News", published in Stockholm, Sweden; the March 9, 2013 edition.
"DN" is one of the two largest circulation newspapers in Sweden; which nation, even though it isn't often mentioned on the nightly news, perhaps because, like Switzerland, the wise people of Sweden scrupulously maintain neutrality in their international affairs, anyone who's ever driven, or seen, a Volvo should be at least vaguely cognizant of the fact that they are a completely modern, industrialized nation, and, are, in fact, the home and host of the Nobel Prize.

We've made a number of previous reports concerning the USDOE Oak Ridge, TN, National Laboratory scientists whose work we again address herein.
There might not be much conceptually new in this dispatch; but, it is becoming apparent to us that the work of these US Government employees, accomplished more than three decades ago, laid the technical foundations for some very recent developments; developments having what we see as rather immense technical implications for the potential of the United States of America to achieve a complete and total, and sustainable, self-sufficiency in terms of energy, and most specifically in terms of her supply of liquid and gaseous hydrocarbon fuels, with those fuels being derived from both Coal and Carbon Dioxide.
