Well you heat calcium carbonate, releasing CO2 to make calcium oxide plus anything from transporting it and CO2 emitted from producing the energy used to heat it.
So even if you made your calcium oxide pebbles with perfectly green power, you are merely moving the CO2 emission from A to B. That might one day be useful if you can build a cycle of re-processing it combine with carbon capture but CC at scale is looking every less plausible
