So hot air to energy? Is it just me or did they just invent an actual real-world use for politicians?
 
Awesome stuff....now I wonder how long it would be before the Fuel companies debunk this as a hoax or discredits it somehow...
 
The prospect of application to space travel and terraforming/colonization has me interested.
 
ok so i find this slightly misleading, reading the article and some of its reference material. it seems that the technology is oriented towards creating more efficient fuel cells but you still need to charge them with electricity which is sourced by other more conventional means. This is great for green transport of energy but as far as i can tell this does not mean we can turn Co2 into energy. Please correct me if i am wrong. These are high level stuff and i am but a simple man.

I also noticed that kind of narrative... but it does seem it will be more efficient than the traditional salt water approach. Not sure HOW efficient it will be.
