Electric Cars,Carbon Dioxide Filters,Vehicle Emissions

A company has developed cars with built-in filters that capture carbon dioxide from the atmosphere as you drive. The filters convert about 20 grams of CO2 during 20 laps around a track, but it's unclear if the system can significantly reduce vehicle emissions.

The filters convert about 20 grams of CO2 during 20 laps around a track, but it's not clear if the system can scale to make a meaningful dent in a vehicle's emissions.
