LET'S TALK SOME TRUTH ABOUT CARBON DIOXIDE
| |
| Are you aware that regulated C02 is the way the body relaxes and that higher atmospheric levels of C02 are a stressed plant's way to recovery? Are we humans contributing to higher levels of atmospheric C02 by improper breathing or blowing out too quickly? Perhaps we are doing as much damage as cows and cars. What is the EPA's real reason for declaring C02 a threat to human health? Is this another way of micromanaging us as humans?

| |

How many people does it take to change a light bulb
| |
| I was told about a recent article in the Weekend Australian Magazine. The article looked at a study by the University of Chicago. that found that if we excluded all animal based foods, including dairy and eggs, from our diet, that change would benefit the environment more than buying an eco-friendly car. Apparently 23% of a typical Australian diet comes from animal sources and so generates almost 1.5 tonnes more greenhouse gases per person per year than a vegan diet of the same calories. |

Are Carbon Emissions Like Cholesterol?
| |
| BACKGROUND
In seminars around the world, I have talked about how carbon emissions are analogous to “fat” in a diet… It is something we don’t want, but is often an unavoidable part of our daily lives. We can accumulate fat on our bodies in many ways, but mostly through “bad” habits. Although challenging, we can change our habits and slowly get rid of the fat. The same is true with carbon emissions… fossil fuels have been our “bad” habit. We can consciously wean ourselves off in a planned manner, or we may have to hastily quit due to supply shortages, energy and/or carbon price spikes, climate impacts, wars or any number of other reasons which we cannot yet see... But Carbon is really more like Cholesterol... |

Western Forests Set to Become Net Carbon Emitter
| |
| This is sort of eye-popping:
Forests in the Interior West could soon flip from carbon sink to carbon source, forest experts say. The region's forests once absorbed and stored more carbon from the atmosphere than they released. But huge conflagrations -- like the 138,000-acre Hayman Fire in Colorado in 2002 and the Yellowstone fires of 1988, which scorched 1.2 million acres -- combined with a series of severe bark beetle infestations and disease outbreaks, have left large swaths of dead, decomposing trees in almost every major Western forest. |
