Don: Not against any improvments that have been made in the past 50 years. Some days when you look off at the horizon and breath the air, one has to wonder if it may not be a case of either or but rather both. This does concern me, and I just wonder what percent of oxygen is in the atmosphere compared to 50 years ago. I remember a figure being quoted in the mid 80s," The average full size sedan at highway speed consumes as much oxygen as 84 humans. I know the cars are smaller and more fuel efficient, but look at the numbers. I do know this, lack of oxygen will kill us quicker than harmful emissions. Living beings have been very quick in building up imunity to harmful chemicals. Man has been very slow to realize the importance of our plant life and its ability to replace oxygen. We must keep every acre of this planet growing vegetation of some nature. More expermental work should be done on just what plant life does this best. One of the hottest topics on these discussion pages is grass mowing or bush hogging. My question is will grasses produce as much oxygen mowed off as allowed to grow wild? I certainly don't have the answers? I'm certain that some high profile enviormantalist off in Newfoundland saving seals, would be making better use of their time saving plant life.
