The lifestyles of around three average Americans will create enough planet-heating emissions to kill one person, and the emissions from a single coal-fired power plant are likely to result in more than 900 deaths, according to the first analysis to calculate the mortal cost of carbon emissions.

Hey Guardian. Do some investigative work and see if you can find the poor guy that my CO2 helped to kill.

The Guardian and Nature.com are also advocates for population control since they say continual increases in the number of human beings on earth is not sustainable. They should applaud non-violent means like increased CO2 emissions as a method to achieve their goal of saving the planet from humanity. After all, since PEOPLE are the problem an obvious solution is fewer people.

What a negative regime. Nothing ever positive comes from them. I guess their motto is get them down and keep hitting them harder over any little thing.

World life expectancy (birth to death) in 1950 was 45 years. Today it is 72 years. 8X as many people die from cold than heat. There is plenty of data available to dismiss the CO2 nonsense but most people are lazy and inclined to listen the their governments and their gov't media.

But, here is what they need to hear...
I Don't Care!
They will always seek to use your "Care" against you.
After all, you want to be a "decent" person , don't you?
But, you don't get to define "decent".
That's the game.
And I don't care about your religion!

Al Gore and Nancy Pelosi and John Kerry others must be killing millions. Gore with his private plane and large expensive home Pelosi flying back and forth to California on my airplane and Bernie with his 3 homes not to mention Kerry has 3 homes and a yacht he hides so he doesn't have to pay taxes on it.
But really is there anyone who actually believes this horse manure?

As everyone knows, the most prevalent "green house gas" trapping heat in the atmosphere is water vapor. And 75% of the world's surface is covered with water. The only reason that carbon gets so much attention from the left-wingers is because it can actually be taxed. Humidity not so much.

Total insanity. Where does it freakin end. These communists depend on the illiterates of the democratic party to believe their bullsh**. Think about it, not one, not one freakin prediction from these idiots has ever come to fruition. The only thing proven, is that all of these mental midgets like Al Gore have all gotten wealthy.

But I thought plants / trees used CO2 and turned it into O2?? Maybe we should stop wiping out the rain forests or allow loggers to re-forest or maybe have intelligent forest management and stop allowing all of them to burn down.

Except that North America is a net CO2 sink due to its vegetation absorbing more CO2 than its factories and IC engines produces, the US has more than done its part by having more forests now than 200 years ago, and by the logic of the article, masks, producing excess CO2 for their wearers, causes even more deaths.

Oh dear Carbon monoxide’s god please don’t kill us humans, we are so afraid. You let plants thrive in that dreadful gas we exhale but we know that the planet is superheating now and that soon the oceans and lakes will boil and forests will erupt into flames. Save us from ourselves. We promise to wear masks and get shots and stay home for ever.

Just read this, been out back burning brush and fallen tree limbs all day, creating more CO2 than 100 "Americans", maybe 1000...Gee,(maths a little), that means I have killed between 30 and 300 today alone, Imma hafta have two scoops of Ice Cream tonight for my just desserts.

This Bovine Scatology is 'rich', especially coming from a 'news'-paper company...... Living trees are killed, cut down, ground up, then treated with a variety of chemicals to produce the media (paper) that it's propaganda is printed on, which is then used ONCE, then most of it is Landfilled..... and emits CO-two as it decomposes.
By the way, as the USA takes coal plants out of service or (as in my area) converts them to natural gas, CHINA is building something over 100 NEW Coal-Burning Power Plants .....EVERY YEAR!
Guardian.... Go Complain to the Chinese ..... They'll tell ya to go Stick It where the Moon Don't Shine!

I saw an article that said 25 cities around the world account for almost all of the emissions, and 23 of them where in China.
So If 3 Americans create enough emissions to kill one person, how does that work out for Chinese people living in China? (Not including ethnic Chinese who are citizens in other countries who are, therefore, not Chinese.)

Prove it. Empirical proof that ANY carbon emissions are doing anything to anyone. Carbon dioxide is PLANT FOOD!
As for smog, the only reason that the average Chinese might not be far worse emission-wise, is because the incredible amount of pollution they are putting out, is weighed against the world's largest population.
