Yeah, it could. And pigs could fly...

I'm sure in the not too distant future the CO2 could be used for something, maybe releasing it at the appropriate time to stop the next ice age. Some time in the next 2,000 years.

Nope. 1) The next ice age would have been about 20,000 years from now; 2) An ice age is generally good for life - consider for instance all the mammoths & other things that went extinct at the end of the last one. (Admittedly with quite a bit of help from humans; 3) 2000 years is irrelevant, since on current trends humans - and most higher life forms - will be extinct in about 500.
