Australians consider burying as much CO2 as they produce to balance greenhouse gas emissions

What a cool, cool idea. We bury garbage (human waste). We bury toxic waste. We bury nuclear waste. Why not bury greenhouse gases? We can refine them right out of the air with a little heat pump.... I wonder if the power necessary to extract and bury CO2 might offset the gains. But what an interesting idea these crazy Aussies have come up with!
