Obviously, this will probably never happen. In the best future for humanity, maybe we can drop our emissions enough to allow for such a thing. But more likely societal collapse

Uhh… Broski when it’s pumped into the ground it’s not just pouring gas into dirt, they are running it through Balsaltic rocks and forming stable minerals in the bedrock.

Just because you’re too stupid to figure out how it works doesn’t mean scientists are
I’m not sure I’d trust the marketing produced by a for-profit company trying to sell a solution.

USGS article on it. You can also read up on these reactions in chemistry text books or online. If still unsatisfied, you could conceivably get a rock and some carbon and run the reaction yourself.
Regardless, the process is well characterized from a chemistry standpoint.
Sell it?! Who are they selling science to? What would they even sell? They didn’t patent the technology of putting carbonated water near rocks
It looks like they’re planning to sell offsets:
Turn carbon into wood, turn wood into things. Do not burn those things.
