Man-Made Diamonds may be old news. But Colorless, Flawless, Identical (and in many instances, superior) Diamonds are new. To me anyways. This is pretty spiffy. Manufactured in a lab they take only days to create?

I wonder if this helps with global warming by permanately removing carbon from the atmosphere.

The great thing about synthetic diamonds is that you know they aren't conflict diamonds.

Well, in principle, yes. But diamonds weighing a few tens of grammes each won't make much of a dent in emissions measured in tons.

KoM, that's just one more reason to get a girl, as rappers would put it, "a rock that'll break her arm." Clearly, they are trying to save the environment.
