This has always been my argument against the Global Warming creed, to wit, we must reduce the carbon dioxide being released into the atmosphere.
To me, remembering what most of us [aged over 50] learned in grade school > Photosynthesis: plants take in carbon dioxide ( it is their lifeblood)an in turn they give off oxygen into the air we breathe, so why would we want to reduce CO2 on which plants survive.

Finally, a wonderful essay--well worth the read! Thank you Mr. Hartmann!

Alleviate world hunger produce more clean carbon dioxide
By Dirck T. Hartmann Thursday, July 3, 2008

(Editor’s Note: To many in the know, Dirck T. Hartmann, who worked on the Apollo Space Program and many other significant NASA projects, was a fighter pilot in WWII, flying P38s. So when this gifted scientist/engineer/physicist and 87-year-old hero felt compelled to answer the questions of Man Made Global Warming, not only his son and grandchildren knew he had something to say with factual substance, truth and knowledge. What he has to say is clear and concise and should be read by everyone.)

What is your carbon footprint? That is the wrong question to ask. A more meaningful question is--How much carbon dioxide does it take to grow the wheat required to produce a loaf of bread? Or--How much carbon dioxide does it take to grow the corn for the chicken feed required to produce a dozen eggs?
