If we could suck 101% of the carbon we produce in a day out of the air, how would the effect global efforts to go carbon neutral? (midwest.social)

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

One of the Civilization 6 expansions introduces climate changes. You can unlock a technology for carbon recapture, however, generally by the time you are able to unlock it, climate change is already occurring. You're also not able to reverse damage that has already been done.

While it can be frustrating in game, I appreciate the fact that the developers realistically incorporated it not being feasible.
