ORIGINAL: DesideriScuri Which means, it isn't settled. Even if CO2 is the biggest culprit, consider the impact of reducing carbon dioxide use. Yeah, reducing carbon emissions will impact on our way of life. But that doesn't mean it's not necessary! Consider the impact of having ocean levels rise by 5 feet. Hurricane Sandy is nothing compared to what we're going to be seeing in a few decades. "It's hard" is not a reason to give up and stick our heads in the sand. quote:
Dry ice is nothing more than solid CO2. CO2 has been used, very successfully, as a sandblasting media. It is vital for life. We exhale it. And? Water is necessary for life, too, but a flood will still ruin your house. And nitrogen is vital for life, but too much of it can set off algal blooms that'll kill off most of the life in a body of water.
