The Carbon Problem

Carbon dioxide is a life giving molecule. Every plant on the face of the earth absorbs carbon dioxide and releases oxygen which humans need to survive. All the talk about reducing carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is mostly without merit. I don’t know when and how everyone became focused on carbon dioxide, but there are more dangerous molecules out there. Sulfur dioxide is one that comes to mind. All people should know this molecule’s name and be extremely concerned with the effects due to this molecule existing in the atmosphere. Sulfur dioxide is one of the key components of acid rain, but that isn’t being told in traditional media. As far as I know, no living thing uses sulfur dioxide to survive. Carbon dioxide is not the problem and I wish others would stand up and say so. Carbon dioxide is necessary for life to exist on this planet.
