And former wasteland might turn into a resource.

Seriously, though, it would be extremely expensive to build. Plus, even
though CO2 "will come to you", it will probably not come to your suction
points at the same rate that the world is spewing it up and your diamond
compression capacity would be no match either.

Forgetting diamonds, I understand people are trying to figure out
effective ways to process atmospheric CO2 into fuels: <URL:
