Is there any potential for the catalytic conversion of carbon dioxide?

Covestro began using \"carbon dioxide\" as a raw material to produce chemical products (polyols) in 2017, and industrial production took place in Belgium; the key factor in carbon dioxide catalysis is not carbon dioxide itself, but rather the catalyst. What are everyone’s views on the application prospects of carbon dioxide catalytic conversion?
The prospects for carbon dioxide are quite good. With the call for carbon neutrality and carbon emission reduction, various products synthesized from carbon dioxide have been developed and put into use in recent years, such as methanol produced from carbon dioxide
It has potential but no real prospects. Mastering technology and advancing it is essential; if we reached an era in which raw materials (and energy) had to be obtained through the conversion of carbon dioxide, it is likely that humanity would have lost its basic conditions for survival.
It would be great if there were products that, like the synthesis of urea, require carbon dioxide as a raw material and are technically and economically viable.
