I mean... I guess theoretically if you could keep a tank of algae or some other microbe that utilizes carbon dioxide alive in some kind of cell that you pass air intake through while driving the car then while it's not actively producing CO2 from burning fuel it could be carbon negative but... I'd sure like to see some papers on how well this "microalgae" handles different environments and like... the movement of the vehicle.
