The carbon-tax idea may sound good to some people on first hearing, but consider this: Carbon, like all matter cannot be created or destroyed. There is a fixed amount of it on the planet in all its forms. Our own bodies are made up of carbon and we cannot live without it. Every living thing that moves on the planet also exhales carbon dioxide with every breath. Nobody has ever objected to owning diamonds (pure carbon) or riding their ultra-light carbon fiber mountain bikes through God's green wilderness. Without carbon dioxide, green plants would wither and die. The real challenge is to intelligently manage the carbon life cycle on our planet and to minimize its harmful forms. Using green algae (liquid plants) we can adroitly convert carbon dioxide to oxygen and put the multiplied algae to good use in our world as food and food additives (spirulina), separate out oils for use as lubricants, make plastics for all sorts of uses, produce ethanol and bio-diesel fuels. Carbon dioxide can be trapped at the smokestack to do all of these things. If we think of ourselves as fighting against carbon, we will only be frustrated.
The technology exists ( www.greenfuelonline.com) to make the most intelligent use of carbon dioxide as an essential part of our environment.
