They are trying to side-step the law. It has nothing to do with CO2 "retaining heat". You are totally off the wall.
I'm totally off the wall? Ever heard of dry ice, genius? What do you think that is used for?

Also, supercritical CO2 is looked at for being used in future nuclear power plant design because it allows better efficiency at higher temperatures.

I guess I should send them your email to let them know they are wasting their time. Sheesh.
