Researchers have used liquid metals to turn carbon dioxide back into solid coal, in a world-first breakthrough that could transform our approach to carbon capture and storage.
The research team led by RMIT University in Melbourne, Australia, have developed a new technique that can efficiently convert CO2 from a gas into solid particles of carbon.
Published in the journal Nature Communications, the research offers an alternative pathway for safely and permanently removing the greenhouse gas from our atmosphere.
Current technologies for carbon capture and storage focus on compressing CO2 into a liquid form, transporting it to a suitable site and injecting it underground.

Figures they'd find my price point and use it. Put an $800 1 carat synthetic in a $200 setting and I'd call that a decent engagement ring.
The problem with a $1K engagement ring with CZ is that the stone can be arbitrarily large. I suppose you could just spend $300 on the CZ ring and take a $700 weekend vacation instead, that would be the rational thing to do.
