Despite all the wonderfull characteristics ( I agree it would be a wonderfull step forward !), lets not forget that carbon has caused as much environemntal problems as it has solved in the past. from soot particles, over oil pollution, plastics in the environment (check the uncredible amounts that drift out there in the oceans).
So .. just wondering has anyone tested these stuffs for their environmental effects ??
