You talk of Fragile Earth. The earth we live on is not some fragile old Granny! It has long been adapting to the disasters that time has hurled at it; including vast amounts of CO2 from various volcanoes and natural causes.
CO2 is after all a naturally occurring gas given off by EVERY living thing and newly dead thing as well. Frankly the arrogance that man, by his actions, can somehow influence our environment is beyond belief. Try peeing in the ocean to warm it up!
The emphasis for looking after our environment is to reduce pollution on behalf of those that live in it. I would support the any environmental initiatives if this were the case, but please do not waste precious time and effort on the pointless CO2 bandwagon. Live with it!!
