Just a refresher of what C02 is since Gore wants to FREEZE it because the planet has a fever

What is carbon dioxide? Why is it important?
Carbon dioxide is very important to our scientists. Our scientists use carbon dioxide as a tool for cleaning things and making products in better ways. But what is carbon dioxide? Do you know? Most of the time carbon dioxide is a gas. It is in the air around you. Plants use carbon dioxide. People breathe it out. Carbon dioxide is not dangerous by itself. Carbon dioxide is often written by scientists as CO2. Writing carbon dioxide as CO2 is useful because it helps us to see what is in carbon dioxide. The C means there is one atom of carbon and the O2 means there are two atoms of oxygen. Atoms make up everything around us. Ask your teacher or do some research at the library if you have more questions about atoms.
I found the stuff on Sharon Eubanks. This is who Wallace thinks is worth of a platform.
Delightful Omissions about Sharon Eubanks

There's a disconnect in Gore's wanting to freeze CO2...plants/trees need it to produce oxygen....In claiming he's going carbon neutral and using green energy, he's buying offsets used for planting trees.
Thanks for the laugh! What is CO2!
And when the CO2 falls back into the ocean as the result of rain, it eventually returns to the earth as carbon. Ta da!!!
What are diamonds and coal made from? (Another question for those students.)
Dang, Mo1....I have just gotten through 90 posts...and you are on FIRE!!
Thanks for this post regarding C02...very informative..especially for science-challenged people like myself.
