I'm not talking about CO2 at all. I'm talking about all the other rubbish in the fumes that cause things like lung cancer.
I do actually believe that it is responsable for people to have 2 or less children, as population growth isn't sustainable, there is a limit as to how many people we can feed with the land we have.
If you want to go down the CO2 road, you might want to look into the fact that volcanoes emit roughly 1% of what humans do, and when they erupt there is no obvious change in CO2 levels. Volcanoes pose far more risk in the way of ash, lava, and earthquakes than they do in the way of CO2 emissions.
