Good job. Nice action taken!

now for real talk,

i work in the electric utility business, and 20 tons of carbon seems like alot (and it is!), but 20 tons isn't much for us because we generate the electricity 24/7 burning fossil fuels.

but anyways on to global warming. many people believe global warming if real, man don't. let me just say this, the people who believe global warming isn't real say that the earth naturally heats up then it will stablize by going through a cooling cycle (like an ice age) [as many people have seen on the day after tommorrow]. now the fact that this happened in the past has scientific evidence, it's just that people don't believe this global warming theory will kill us.

now on the other hand, people who believe in global warming usually think global warming is going to warm up the planet so much, it won't be able to handle / stablize it self because of other effects such as us dumping carbon in to the atmosphere changes factors greatly and it will eventually kill us all. while there is some scientific data on this no one can go on and claim the truth yet. but it is bad that we are cutting down rainforests and etc that make carbon in to o2. scientists on this side claim they have proof of the earth's global temperature has risin a few degrees since the past.

both sides have scientific data and theories, the world likes to believe global warming is a big problem (i my self don't disagree) while others think the earth can stablize it self (as it has done in the past, and was designed to do). im not saying global warming is real or not, im just stating some facts.

but i like to believe it is real. + there are many government funded projects and research most of the public does not know about, so im sure there is alot of information the government is not releasing to the public.

When I say global warming isn't real, I mean it as in the way everyone says as in WE are the cause. We are just speeding things up, we are a catalyst.

The planet warming up is inevitable. The amount of living creatures on the planet increases day by day giving off more CO2.

CO2 from cars etc isn't the sole problem it is just speeding up a natural process.

And cuttle down trees is wrong anyway. Trees look much better than a slab of concrete.

Equivalent to 4 Canadian families, or two American ones, if I remember right. (per year)

Or maybe it was 4 Canadians, or two Americans...just people - not families.

Bleh, can't remember the specifics. It was 5/10 tonnes for 1/1 [families/people] in Canada and the US.
