Re: Bury Trees to fight Global Warming

Environmentalists aren't just a menace to the economy and our liberties. Their hunger for destructive theories in which they fervently believe can also make them a threat to the environment they so piously worship.

The notion that carbon has suddenly become environmentally toxic has led some to advocate cutting down live trees and burying them so that the deadly CO2 cannot escape the rotting wood and make it stop being so cold out.

This excerpt is from the UN's Carbon Balance and Management journal:

"...Here a carbon sequestration strategy is proposed in which certain dead or live trees are harvested via collection or selective cutting, then buried in trenches or stowed away in above-ground shelters. The largely anaerobic condition under a sufficiently thick layer of soil will prevent the decomposition of the buried wood."

One of the reasons CO2 is not a toxin but a highly necessary component of our atmosphere is that trees absorb it and then release the oxygen we breathe. If we buried enough trees, we really would have an environmental crisis.
This is so ridculous that I want to laugh and pound my head on the wall on the same time. You really found a gem this time Air2Air!!

Therefore I propose to the environmental extremists that we go cut down the biggest sequoias and redwoods and bury them because they are huge carbon polluters, right?
