But they left out how much more energy was utilized?! (Or that you would be stuck with all of that original CO2?)
Assuming that our ability to utilize energy efficiently is increasing (it is) you will be getting the additonal benefit of the energy utilized from 130M barrels of oil AND the original fuels used to produce the original CO2, with the penalty being only the additional CO2 - assuming you didn't put that CO2 back in the ground too.
Still seems to me to be half as much C02 in the air with this technology?
