Sequestration isn't recycling. It's the idea of storing it in a way that isn't harmful to the environment. CO2 being an incredibly low-energy form of carbon, it would require more energy to sequester than the potential energy you'd store via sequestration. Thermodynamically, it isn't energetically favorable or beneficial to attempt to sequester it. If it could be actually recycled in a large scale process the way plants and marine microorganisms do, then it would be energetically favorable. In other words, to sequester carbon you'd expend more energy and producing more carbon than you'd be able to sequester. Result: Net gain in carbon.

eat it... but not in CO2 form.
