    'Carbon' is used to freely, leaving the uninformed to think that it is coal or some other solid form of the element. Carbon dioxide is what they are actually referring to. Then the uninformed will be confused by two words instead of one. Back to your question. An emphatic yes. This is odd, because I was just thinking of this a few moments ago. CO2 can be easily sequestered by growing algae. Pipe in the scrubbed CO2 into large transparent water filled tanks exposed to the sun. Toss in a load of algae and it will reproduce at a tremendous rate. It is free and has a number of uses. It can be dried and returned to the electric plant as fuel. It can be fermented to ethanol, and it can be used for animal feed. I saw this on a documentary a year ago and it is starting to be used.

    She knows she is always welcome here.  I've been trying to make myself availlable to any all my friends out here by checking in.  She can even bring LyricalOne to keep her company and on her toes.  I think giving them their own rooms would be the best but it would be fun to have her.  She can bring her grandson too.  I know she is his biggest fan.
    As soon as we gather up here, we could fly over to Harry's.  :)  That will be Carbon, her grandson, LyricalOne + one, Shar, Don, Merlin, and Harry + Harry's keeper,  for dinner please. 
    I leave the scientific side of question to the brilliance of, ironcially, "carbon" and "element."  Funny how they both chose names that really do reflect what they can do and are good at!  I thought we all were mostly made of carbon?!  I'm so glad I'm learning more about science from my friends on answerMug than I ever did in High School.  Gotta love it!

    Why don't we just hole up there for good and start a commune?

    I'm a pretty good cook.



    We can add additions and use the trees.

    I wish I could hit "LOVE!"  I'm great at running stairs with trays and Don is a master at woodwork and building.  I do think it might need a little maintenance to up-stand a huge Hurricane.... but it can be done!  I always bring the magic!!! Hugs!
