Apparently, capturing it isn't that energy intensive. But turning it back into carbon really really would be.

So you have to store it as co2, which is tricky.

Tricky and energy intensive. If you are converting it to something else then you need to put energy in. If you are compressing it and / or moving it then you need to put energy in.

I for one favour turning it in to construction diamond and buckminsterfullerene and building houses and space elevators or turning it in to calcium carbonate and building islands.
