Here this belongs in this thread… basically it is a way to convert CO2 + H2O-\> ethanol using a carbon nanotubes and copper and electricity. What I didn’t see is the electric efficiency on the process. The conversion rate was around 60%.

There are a lot of stories on the tech but here is a link to one.

> The process is cheap, efficient, and scalable, meaning it could soon be used to remove large amounts of CO2 from the atmosphere.
