That would be an incredible innovation. You don't have to stop at coal either, it's just the dirtiest. Nat gas, trash, oil, wood and anything else burned on a huge scale could be curbed.

Yep, you could even pepper the interstate highways of America with them and just let them passively eat the CO2 particles that cars are putting out.
