Burning Question
It is not that carbon per se causes green house emissions, it is the creation of carbon compounds such as CO2 via burning of fossil fuels (oil, gas, or coal) or methane (CH4) from our cows, landfills and sewers that become greenhouse gasses. They are the compounds that create the heat-trapping layer that is warming the Planet.
