    Chains of hydrogen and carbon.

    Yes, hydrogen, the smaller possible molecule, and carbon, which is smaller and lighter then oxygen

    Hydrocsrbon chains are the most efficient way to store carbon, aside from something like graphite.

    Who cares what it becomes when you burn it? CO2 is obviously not the optimal carbon sink, even before you start considering things like long term stability
