contents We computationally investigate the catalytic potential of MoSe$_2$, WS$_2$, and WSe$_2$ nanoribbons and nanosheets for the partial hydrogenation of CO$_2$ to methanol by comparing their electronic, adsorption, and defect properties to MoS$_2$, a known thermo-catalyst. We identify Se-deficient MoSe$_2$ (followed by WSe$_2$) nanosheets to be favorable for selective methanol formation.
