We are looking at doing planet changing work, and removing CO2 from the atmosphere. The issue is storing the CO2. Please let us know the best ways to compress millions of tons of CO2, as we have limited storage space. For example, how much could we compress a ton of CO2 gas? What size container would a ton of CO2 fit in, when fully compressed? Also, would turning tons of CO2 into liquid be more space effective? How much space would a ton of CO2 gas that has been turned into liquid take up?

Compression of CO2 mens also CO2 generation unless everything is green powered. People looks for sequestration, as in the answer. Or to some kind of fuel production, that again must be green to be effective.

Poor carbon dioxide has been unnecessarily defamed as a greenhouse effect. This is not only gas in the atmosphere which is an infrared absorber. Guess what, water vapor is a major culprit as well along with methane (recall cows digestive system). Nature has a very delicate balance, carbon dioxide is plant's food as well.
I recall some people doing PhDs on carbon dioxide remediation in chemical engineering. One of options is to pump carbon dioxide into deep rocks with a hope that it will convert into carbonates, mainly calcium carbonate in deep layers. One can then study all types of phase diagram of carbon dioxide etc.
One green solution is a massive drive for the plantation of trees. This option is far better than more expensive options.

If you want you can have a look at this: [ https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.carbonbrief.org/world-can-safely-store-billions-tonnes-co2-underground/amp ]
They here speak about how we can store large amounts of CO2 in depleted oil fields, natural gas reserves or other such underground storage reserves. Even MIT has a pdf on Carbon Storage and Sequestration. Have a look!
