Balls
Here is a video to help visulize CO2 emmissions of New York City. Each 10 meter ball represents 1 ton of CO2.

Looks like a crock to me but whatever. The CO2 Chicken Littles must buy this stuff or no one would be selling it.

That's pretty creative.
My problem with the whole greenhouse thing is that human activity produces such a small % of it total.
Remember when CO was the enemy? CO2 was 'harmless'

Trees need CO2 to create oxygen. So, what we need are more and bigger trees.
Or, so I've been told.

That video is clearly a scare piece. If there was that much CO2 accumulating in the atmosphere then we would all have asphyxiated years ago. But we haven't. Well, except for Payne Stewart, David Carradine and a few others.

Well, you need something to hang the moochers from before turning them into mulch in DJ's woodchipper...
