Withdraw the EPA statement that CO2 is 'A Dangerous Pollutant' as it defies the dictionary definition and incorrect.

Created by D.H. on December 26, 2012

The dictionary defines a pollutant as 'A noxious substance in the environment which needs to be removed'. CO2 does not just miss this definition, it is essential for life. Without it the planet would be virtually dead, as is required for both plants who need it for growth and animals who need to breathe it to live. It is no different to calling oxygen a pollutant should it increase. It would take 50,000 parts per million before we would be affected, which is not physically possible. Making a directly incorrect rule such as this goes against the complete rules both of democracy and science, and we vote for this to be withdrawn from the EPA ruling immediately as simply incorrect. If it was the case it would need to be totally removed from the atmosphere, which is no less far fetched
