RE: How much CO2 are you emitting?
An average person's respiration generates approximately 450 litres (roughly 900 grams) of carbon dioxide per day. Multiply that by 6 billion people and you will get around 6milion tones per day for the whole world population.
Inahalation of concentrations of CO2 above 0.1% became dangerous for the human beeing. In most of the great cities we have more than that.

One lateral thinker I used to work with had a theory that it's not CO2 that's going to be the problem for the world it's fresh water.
His theory was this:
- a human body is 70% water
- this water is locked up until you die
- 6 billion plus bodies in the world and rising
- fresh water will be at a price
On the other hand, if the ice caps of Greenland, the North and South Poles melt, then more bodies may be required to soak up the water that that this produces and keep sea levels from rising too much.
I'm confused. I'll have a lay down in a cool room now.

Oh well, back to morning for ANS and protesting the building of coal plants in areas that don't consume electricity and tell those states that consume it to build thier own power plants. se also www.secondlife.com

And I work in an industry which takes natural gas from one place or another where there's a lot of it and sends it through a tube to far-away places who need it...

First proof is the Vic Camp Lake incident and others similar.
Second proof is the Bermuda triangle and sudden releases of methane or CO2 from hydrates or formations causing boats to lose bouyancy.

At least thats the trend I used in the design of waste water treatment plant components.
