Conclusion There are so many hurdles associated invariably with the photocatalytic carbon dioxide reduction process which must be rectified in order to create an energy, sustainable society using direct sunlight as a primary energy source just as plants do. It could happen only by the collaborative research effort from various groups, irrespective of the implicit bias among the scientific community. 

The scientific community has begun to realize that carbon dioxide represents an attractive continuous phase for many applications, especially as it is naturally occurring and readily available. Carbon dioxide can be harvested from abundant natural reservoirs, and recycled CO2 can be recovered from the waste streams of power plants and industrial plants that produce ammonia, ethanol, hydrogen, and ethylene oxide [7]. In addition.

The wind turbine power Mohawk is using translates into 4-million kilowatt hours of power, enough for 12,000 tons of paper production. Community Energy officials said this move would help remove more than 6.1 million pounds of carbon dioxide from the air the equivalent of talcing more than 300 cars off the road each year. These wind plants use many wind turbines, often assembled on a large singe wind site called a wind farm, to produce electricity. 

CO2 as a byproduct during the combustion of fuels in industrial plants and automobiles is a major contributor to global warming. Hence, the selective capture of carbon dioxide requires special attention from the scientific community. The principle sources of CO2 that cause harm to the environment are contaminated natural gas, containing a mixture of methane and CO2 (known as pre-combustion), and exhaust gas generated in industiy or from automobiles (post-combustion). Separate physical conditions are needed for CO2 capture from pre- and post-combustion mixtures, and a variety of porous polymer networks, both soluble and insoluble, have been involved in CO2 capture with consideration of their pore dimensions.
