Huh?

"on the ground"?
How do you have health threatening Vehicle emissions not be problematic "on the ground"?

Maybe you meant natural CO2 emissions ?
I'm talking about CO2 in the context of poisonous emissions from a vehicle engines.

But ya gotta admit, the sheer amounts of pollution do play a factor in the delicate balance of the natural eco-system, no?

Put a tiny gas engine, say 1 cc, in a sealed garage. Any plants in there (and humans) wont be around for long.

Now it does depend on how many plants you have in there. If the garage were jam packed with plants, would be a different story.

But I don't think the "braniacs" hacking away at the Rain forest is helping the eco-system handle the extra emissions we put out.

I agree.
The easiest and safest "geo-gambling" is getting rid of the problem in the first place. Pollution.
Which means switching over to non-Oil based locomotion.
