I could have sworn that an Article was Posted here a few Months back saying that Concrete actually absorbs CO2 during the curing process.

Saudi Arabia built walls around Yemen AND on its border with Iraq.
Kenya is building a wall along its border with Somalia.

There is very complex math to support this.

That is a good way to put it since most of the numbers used are purely imaginary.

[Pilgrim's Progress]

This is so silly that only liberals will believe it.

For myself, I believe that those bright red ties that Trump wears is the true cause of global warming.

Most of the carbon dioxide from concrete comes from its main ingredient: cement.

Cement bad. Got it.

[Daniel Ramsey]

What about the 3 Gorges Dam?

Used so much cement it was being rationed to us concrete batchers in Alaska.

Everything causes Global Warming to these zealots. Even a newborn baby would be judged guilty of ‘leaving a pollution footprint.”

[Nifster]

I want some warming to offset the coming mini ice age

This is so much #$E##%*(^&&**%%%^@@#

These “Scientists,” should all Shut The #%## UP!

[Salvation]

What nonsense.

Shall we advocate taking down all the concrete and brick buildings, warehouses, etc.?
