    CO2 to CH3CH20H

    That's carbon dioxide to alcohol, using a catalyst... Nano-spike catalysts convert carbon dioxide directly into ethanol Not sure where the hydrogen is coming from though.

    Perhaps reading the article would help...

    With the help of the nanotechnology-based catalyst which contains multiple reaction sites, the solution of carbon dioxide dissolved in water turned into ethanol with a yield of 63 percent

      That's Global Warming solved. But then we'd have to deal with Global Alcoholism from all that cheap booze.

              Gives off a feck lot of oxygen too.

              2(CO2) + 3(H20) = CH3CH20H + 3(O2)
