Interesting, and I fully agree that sequestration would be a solution.

I root for electric propulsion and solar power (go Elon!). But I support all efforts in this fight.

I will read the references you gave. Edit: "Burning Buried Sunshine" is a great read! 86 m3 of ancient biomass for 1 gallon of fuel..

BBS is good. I'd been of the inclination that biofuels were viable prior to that, it pretty much single-handedly changed my mind. I really like that it gives a detailed breakdown of how fossil fuels come to be and their various and relative formation efficiencies.

Carbon sequestration from seawater is a rather different animal from most CCS discussions. Though, in the world of strange bedfellows, it turns out that various coal industry organisations follow this information pretty closely and have some of the more complete compilations of research. Just ... beware biases.
