I wonder how long it will take for the first "I never allow comments on any of MY memes ..." people to show up?

So you'd be okay being locked in a room and then having carbon monoxide pumped into the room?

Actually if you have ever visited a green house, you have already walked through that room. I know I have. Greenhouses like to keep the CO2 above 700 PPM, some go as high as 1200.

Carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide are two different things

Sure! No problem! Just be sure that it is pumped in at around 0.5ppm to 5ppm, like it is everywhere else.

Damn, I was wrong! The optimal level for greenhouse CO2 is 1500 PPM, which gives a 30% increase in yields.

You need sunlight, CO2, water, and available other nutrients (nitrogen, phosphates, ...) important to correctly identify your limiting factor when operating your greenhouse.

As it turns out, you are bad for the environment . . .

"As bacteria inside the body continue to multiply and consume tissue, the product gases of their digestion: hydrogen sulfide, carbon dioxide and methane (H2S, CO2, CH4) cause two very well-known features of death: The smell and the swelling."

I don't think we should be burning our dead bodies en masse either and not sure who told you I did!

Ya don't have to burn bodies in order for the various gasses, like methane and CO2 to be released, it will still be released.

Mmmhmm. Thus releasing carbon that was already brought out of the air into the food chain by a plant within living history. And since, AS I JUST SAID, we don't burn the entire body, the net release of CO2 emissions is less than zero.

You know what? Sesame street is clearly too complicated for you - let me put this into terms YOU understand. In the Serenity Now episode, George Constanza won the sales race by basically buying a bunch of computers from his own father's company. But how many of those computers were actually traded to the market? Was it all of them? Or is there an inventory shrinkage because Constanza is basically moving them from one form of storage to another?

Now take your time, and understand that it's ok to say you made a mistake.

CO2 = plant food.

The more CO2, the more green plants.

The more green plants, the more CO2 consumed.

Anthropogenic global warming is a hoax, making its false prophets filthy rich. Not surprisingly, those false prophets individually spew CO2 in the amount similar to that of the average small town.

Except we keep burning all the green plants back into the air so that doesn't work. There are sesame street segments that break this down into simple terms if you still don't get how this works.

"CO2 = plant food"

Are you a plant?

"Anthropogenic global warming is a hoax"

Keep telling yourself that

"Keep telling yourself that"

You keep telling yourself that it is not, regardless of all the evidence to the contrary.

Yep

more CO2, more plants
more CO2, faster time to maturity, better yield
more CO2, less water use by the plants

It's why greenhouses use CO2 generators. They like to keep it above 700 PPM, for higher profit.

They actually do build greenhouses next to coal power generation. Some have even managed to get the CO2 piped into their operations for free.

p.s. Guess what happens to the carbon in you after you die?

And guess what one of the byproducts the body produces and releases after taking oxygen in?

CO2 is expelled by our bodies, it doesn't fuel our bodies

"CO2 is expelled by our bodies, it doesn't fuel our bodies"

Incorrect!

CO2 is absorbed by plants, which we then eat to fuel our bodies.
CO2 is absorbed by plants, which are then eaten by steak and wings, which in turn gives us steak, wings, eggs, milk, etc., which we then eat to fuel our bodies.
CO2 is absorbed by plants, which then release oxygen for us to breath.

You see, simple science is obscured completely by your liberal ideology, to the point where you literally miss the obvious.
