Methane is a greenhouse gas more potent than CO2 that was stored underground for millennia. You would need actual data to conclude that storing CO2 is too expensive.
There are no manmade Methane stores from before the Christian era and there never have been. If you're going to argue that methane that was produced underground millions of years ago is a valid human goal, you may as well propose the simpler method of just increasing the Earth's orbit by a few tenths of a percent to offset the heating due to CO2. Done and done.
