    Still makes the CO2

    If you search the topic, you'll find that the method actually still produces the same amount of CO2, just in a manner that is easier to capture. Which is great, but now what do you do with the CO2? Impressive science, and it sounds like it would help deal with some of the nastier pollution problems like acid rain.

    Real

    Real, yes, but a long way from being feasible yet.

    I won't give away the plot,

    but it reminds me of a movie,The Formula. It has Brando and George C. Scott in it. I think Brandos character was based on Armand Hammer. Check it out

    Of course it had to be Fox news to inform the world of this wonderful breakthrough.

    I noticed that.

    If it's on Fox News, don't believe it.
