First Lets just get one thing straight, I'm not advocating emissions of hydrocarbons and carbon monoxide here through your important 'tailpipe' emissions. What I am saying is CO2 is not a pollutant.

'emissions of carbon dioxide are considered a pollutant because it is a significant greenhouse gas and increasing its levels in the atmosphere contributes to global climate change.'

Firstly. Let me nit-pick first. Significant? You haven't looked at the basic facts. What I call is significant is the water vapor in the atmosphere. Water Vapor 'is a naturally occurring greenhouse gas and accounts for the largest percentage of the greenhouse effect, between 36% and 90%' Carbon Dioxide makes up 9-26%, you must then take into account all the different forms - Volcanoes, Decaying Organisms, Ocean contraction and expansion due to temperature change. Then you must take the human produced Carbon Dioxide, which is the focus of all the concern, and its .054% of the greenhouse gases.
Secondly. Look at the definition of pollutant:
Something that pollutes, a waste material that contaminates air, soil, or water. CO2 contaminating air? It is part of the
air!!! ~ Bloody Oxford English dictionary. Always shoots themselves in the foot!
Thirdly. Global Warming? Is it a bad thing? Or is it not? My opinion is that it's not a problem and the world will naturally begin to cool. When, depends on the activity of the Sun in the past. Your opinion is that it's a bad thing. So to
you CO2 is a pollutant, to me it isn't. What right do you have to call me a polluter and a Pollutant. That brings me on to my fourth point.
Fourth. Carbon makes for the diversity of life, if we didn't have it. Then we and the planet wouldn't exist, so god praise Carbon Dioxide. Also water vapor is a greenhouse gas that effects the environment. So you are calling yourself a polluter and a pollutant. Basically you should be in Greenpeace. Human Scum!
Fifth. I had another point but I can't remember.
