CO2 as a currency :)

Unfortunately, sucking CO₂ out of the sky isn't the most efficient way to obtain it. Rather, burning forests is—which kind of ruins the intentions of the author.

CO2 is a currency: Poor countries sell their CO2 kvotas to polluting industrialised countries.

The problem of carbon dioxide - a little more far-fetched than the full. The ocean can absorb much more CO2 than we can provide. Also, all organic, which we burn, when it grew by assimilating carbon dioxide in the past.

And what happens when the oceans do that... please continue.

Nothing will happen, CO2 will be building material for phytoplankton, that's all.

But not as fast as we can provide it, unfortunately. I don't think the problem is carbon dioxide per se, but rather the speed it is being pumped into our atmosphere.

Mother nature will correct the imbalance. The world won't be destroyed.

Humans might be wiped out in the process, but rest assured, mother nature will fix the CO2 problem.

The equivalent of mother nature didn't fix the problem on Venus.

That's how mother nature wants Venus to be.
