A simple, low-cost carbon filter removes 90% of carbon dioxide from smokestack gases

It is clear that the "increasingly clean" coal energy industry advertising on television has never been serious about carbon dioxide capture. Not only does the concept of using a "simple, low-cost filter" to capture CO2 seem a rather "duh" discovery, but it comes as no surprise that outside researchers, rather than the industry itself, should come up with the idea. I'd be willing to bet the industry will further prove its "uncleanliness" by taking 20 years to install such filters, and will only do so when required to install them by law, the only motivation that has forced the industry to become "increasingly clean" in the first place. Quite apparently, saving our children and grandchildren never has been motivation enough.

I guess its just not enough that some one developed this filter. There has to be some evil behind it.

It might cause some headaches if we forced the industry use to them in a year or two. Damn, if they sell their carbon credits they might come out ahead!

what about using algae to make fuel out of the C02? waste=product.
i can't believe they aren't doing it already and making money out of their waste.
