I found this fact: Of the 186 billion tons of CO2 that enter earth's atmosphere each year from all sources, only 6 billion tons are from human activity. Approximately 90 billion tons come from biologic activity in earth's oceans and another 90 billion tons from such sources as volcanoes and decaying land plants.
I calculated this out and it comes to 3.2% of the carbon in the biosphere is related to man-made activities.
Is carbon neutrality just another red-herring? Seems to me its gonna cost me a lot for no return. If carbon were a problem, it seems we need to worry about biologic activity and volcanos much more than what I do.
