For what it's worth, a lot of synthetic biologists are looking into Carbon Concentrating Mechanisms (e.g. carboxysomes) so that we can improve carbon capture in native plants. Honestly, as a protein engineer / synthetic biologist myself there's even odds I could end up working on it too; though, it's not my first choice.

I feel like we need to start building giant hypertufa obelisks to grow moss on. Maybe labyrinthine windtunnels and stuff like that. Stuff that'll make future archaeologists go "whoa," but mostly just replace oxygen in the atmosphere while absorbing carbon dioxide...

The science isn't the issue. It's the politics.
