Mel,
My point remains that 100% sequestered carbon is very bad for nearly every lifeform on this planet.
That's a silly statement to make given that we'll never reach 100% sequestered carbon.

But I think I get the point you're trying to make. When atmospheric carbon is treated like a "pollutant," the logical conclusion is that the less we have, the better.

The more logical statement would be that CO2 levels above a certain threshold should be treated as a "pollutant," but no one can say for sure what that threshold should be, only that "higher" is "worse."

Tejek - You clearly don't comprehend the info you post. A little bit of applied logic can go a long way.

You photosynthesis link clearly states "atmospheric carbon dioxide is incorporated "

The whole point I'm making is that sequestered carbon is not atmospheric carbon. Oil is not in the atmosphere; Coal is not in the atmosphere; Methyl Hydrides are not in the atmosphere. Natural Gas is sequestered underground and when in the atmosphere is not able to participate in photosynthesis.

My point remains that 100% sequestered carbon is very bad for nearly every lifeform on this planet.

Thanks for certifying the point I am making!

I don't what you think you are saying or what point you think you are making..............but I can tell you its scientific gibberish.
