   Correct me if I am wrong. Isn't the whole concept of being eco-friendly   
   reducing your carbon footprint? Right now CO2 is a trace gas at .033% of the   
   atmosphere while oxygen around 20% and Nitrogen 78%.I have news for you there   
   are more than one million    
   volcanoes under the Pacific Ocean in the Ring of fire--each spewing more CO2   
   than humans ever could. Oceans readily absorb CO2 and there isn't anything you   
   or anybody can do about it. They molten rock also heat the oceans of the world.   
      
   Another awakening: oceans cover 4/5 ths of the world and water has more heat   
   capacity per volume (Btu's/ft3/F +62. Steel 59, Rock or stone (30 percent air   
   gaps) 25, Soil 25-32, brick 23 to 25, Adobe 20, wood (pine or fir) 18. air   
   .018. Climates around    
   large lakes have warmer winters and colder summers due to the moderating   
   property of water. GW is not man made and neither is climate change. There   
   isn't anything we can do about it. The sun and the moon's gravity of 2E20   
   joules per second heat the earth    
   and keep it volcanic-ally active otherwise we would run out of CO2 and not be   
   able to grow food and die.   The book is: COSMOLOGICAL ICE AGES
