Climate change solved by ebike batteries with massive range

[vfr400]

All that CO2 can now be sucked up and put into ebike batteries that have 7 times the range of our present ones. Life gets better and better. Greta Thunberg can now go back to school.

First Fully Rechargeable Carbon Dioxide Battery is Seven Times More Efficient Than Lithium Ion

Researchers were able to successfully recharge the battery more than 500 times—and it is seven times more efficient than lithium ion counterparts.

Awww. Makes me all nostalgic

The battery vapourware articles have really dried up in the last couple of years

My favourite was one on the now renamed Gizmag

The hack on that one claimed the factory was about to produce 18,650 units. Er, no that's 18650 cells.

And they never did if course

Don't spoil it. I'd already planned my camping holiday touring Scotland. I was going to take just one spare battery and not bother with the charger for the 1400 mile trip.

the cell works with pumped CO2 at 1.5 bar.
The challenge is to make the containing vessel light enough to make a practical cell.

And there was me thinking we could just plant our 18650 cells like trees to absorb C02 then realised 18650's don't have leaves .

Climate change won't be solved by technology.

It will be solved by grumpy old women and men on e-bikes! We are part of the solution

I think it's going to be solved by a disaster, like Yellowstone Park erupting, an asteroid strike, bird flu or ebola mutation.

Or war. Massive, global war. Frighteningly plausible these days with the various mugs, eejits, psychopaths and despots currently with fingers on buttons

Yes Thanos, I suspect you're right ....

Who is Thanos ?
