Dear Sir,
Jay Naus (T.C. 15-1-10) raises an enormous problem the selected scientists don't seem to have noticed. The National Lung Health Education programme estimates that each individual exhales 450 millilitres of CO2 a minute.
The current world population is estimated by the United States Census Bureau at nearly 7 Billion people (6,797,096,740). This means that approximately two and half billion metric tonnes of CO2 is produced annually from people breathing.
Every other living breathing thing is also producing CO2 and as there are nearly as many sheep and cattle besides humans producing these prodigious amounts CO2. The tax revenue from the "Carbon Credit" racket boggles the mind.
As we cannot have any more life than death on earth, the surplus CO2 is absorbed by the oceans, after the plant life on land has used what it requires, so producing more life in the sea. CO2 being heavier than air and not lighter, would otherwise blanket the earth and extinguish all fire, it being a very effective fire retardant.
The alleged power house emissions of CO2 compared to human emissions is comparable to a dehydrated power house mouse piddling in Sydney harbour.
But the big lie is that the relative small amounts of Power House CO2 is causing "Climate Change". This has to be the biggest lie in history. But for a few, the most profitable lie in history.
Yours truly,
J.Brett
