everyone calm down!
yes, Awesome got the type of poisonous gas wrong in terms of the garage. We don't need more people logging in and telling him/her that he/she is wrong.
"What case? I think you mean Carbon Monoxide, which causes death by asphyxiation due to preferential binding with haemoglobin in the blood. It has nothing to do with carbon. Carbon, along with Hydrogen and Oxygen are basic elements necessary to sustain life."
well done swvau3015 - congratulations. You know how to log into Wikipedia and regurgitate some facts. applause!
BUT! since you ALL thought yourselves so smart to point out that it was carbon monoxide that pours from a car exhaust and can lead to death (which is true - a pat on the back for all of you), you then made the mistake of getting ahead of yourselves and saying carbon dioxide is not a pollutant or poisonous or whatever...

CO2 is a poisonous gas. don't believe me? you don't have to - I have a thing called evidence ( YES! actual evidence! ) to back me up
http://xenophilius.wordpress.com/2008/11/09/two-french-wine-makers-suffocated-by-carbon-dioxide-fumes-from-grapes-they-were-treading/
there are numerous examples...
Look up the Lake Nyos tragedy of 1986. A lake rich in CO2 ate some bad food, let out a massive burp of CO2 and killed 1700 villagers and 3500 livestock in the valley below.
BOOM! what's that? oh yeah - that's the sound of all you chumps getting schooled!

Get together amongst yourselves and decide which corner you're going to fight from... It's really quite funny. You're all (no doubt) conservative, right wing, baby boomers who are absolutely terrified of change. It's ok! you'll be fine. no one's going to hurt you!
Anywho! i got off topic.... oh yeah! get together and organise yourselves properly. Figure out which ridiculous argument you're going to go with and commit to it. You're all over the place. You fall into several categories...
1/ It's all a big scam!! I don't even believe CO2 exists!! Rising temperature? Pfft! no way man! I mean, how can a person MEASURE temperature!! You'd need some kind of thermal monitoring device? HA! smoke some more weed you jobless hippie... This crazy, socialist, facist Labor government just invented a gas so they could tax all you "Labor Zombies" like the blind idiots you are!!!!
or...
2/ Yeah CO2 exists but it's completely harmless. H20 is a greenhouse gas too and it completely trounces CO2 in a greenhouse fight. Therefore, we're all fine and i don't have to change ANYTHING! My back of the envelope science just destroyed the millions of man hours spent researching climate science over the last 40 years....Not to mention, plants eat it up and reckon it's delicious. I just spoke to a pine tree and he told me so!
or
3/ Yeah CO2 probably exists and it might be a greenhouse gas and all the fossil fuels we've burnt and livestock grazing and deforestation MAYBE is having a miniscule effect on the planet but there's no point doing anything about it because (in totatiliy) Australia emits bugger all CO2 (actually, we are, right now, the largest emitters of CO2 per capita in the world)

4/ GGGGGGGAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!! ifweeventhinkaboutdoinganythingaboutclimatechangewe'reallgonnabejoblessinstantlyandourentireeconomywillfalltobitscosit'ssuperfragileandcouldexplodeintodustattheslightestprovocationsoeveryonejustholdyourbreathcloseyoureyesandpraytoanyandeverygodyouknowsothatwemightbeok
it goes on and on and on...
by the way - you're great inspirational (BAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHA!!!!!!) leader tony abbott realises climate change is real and he himself has proposed a way to tackle it (just not the same one as Labor). So even he disagrees with all of YOU!
biggity bam!
