Sucking the carbondioxide out of the atmosphere doesn't seem to be a feasable plan, considering how vast earth's atmosphere is. My growing feeling is that we are long at the point where we need to start putting heavy restrictions in place to avoid desaster. Carbon capture technologies are already in development, but that alone isn't good enough to avert the coming crisis.

I don't disagree but what is the point of single countries putting restrictions in place while developing countries continue to rely on burning carbon? It would handicap the economies of some while others just carry on. As those countries develop they are going to burn more and more carbon. Those developing countries also have massive populations, they will not intentionally handicap their growth while others have already benefited.
