I sit in a hot office and think about this. I am not sure where to ask. I am genuinely curious. I have seen a breakdown of building solar panels to power the earth 2x over in order to recapture carbon equal to the rate it is being produced, but then areas of the earth that were reflective are now absorbtive of heat…
My idea is a stationary High altitude blimps that collect CO2 and break it into pure Carbon. As the carbon collects, the weight lowers the blimp, then the pure Carbon is collected to be used in industrial processes, with the O2 going into the air.
It’s like a high-altitute tree, that uses the sun to break down CO2, giving us the carbon to make into Nanotubes to build better batteries.
I like this idea!
