ABOUT CO2 IS GREEN
Our Mission
CO2 is Green is
a 501(C)(4) non-profit organization. Our mission is to support scientifically and economically sound public policy on environmental issues. Currently, we are especially concerned with
federal proposals that would interfere with nature's dependence on carbon dioxide (C02).
CO2 is not a
pollutant. CO2 makes Earth green because it supports all plant life. It is Earth's greatest airborne fertilizer. Even man-made CO2 contributes to plant growth that in turn sustains
humanity and ecosystems.
CO2 Is Green is
working to insure that all federal laws or regulations are founded upon science and not politics or scientific myths. No one wants the plant and animal kingdoms, including humanity, to be harmed
if atmospheric CO2 is reduced. The current dialog in Washington needs to reflect these inalterable facts of nature. We cannot afford to make mistakes that would actually harm both the plant and
animal kingdoms..
There are many scientists and organizations who have published
important studies that need a voice. The media has ignored the facts about CO2 and climate changes too long. There is not a single piece of scientific evidence that CO2
is pollution. Claims that CO2 is a pollutant are a myth and are absolutely false. In fact, lower levels of carbon dioxide actually reduce plant growth and food production. What we
see happening in Washington right now is the replacement of politics for science in conversations about CO2.
What you can
do.
- Educate yourself on how CO2 can further "Green the Earth" by
visiting www.plantsneedco2.org.
- Educate yourself on the pending
legislation.
- Write a Letter to the Senate Committee on Environment and
Public Works. This critical committee will soon hold hearings on legislation to label CO2 as pollution
- Take action today. Use our tools to write your representative
- Donate to organizations that expose the
CO2 myths.
Please join us and many others in producing a public awareness campaign that presents the honest
scientific and economic evaluation of facts and consequences and the truth about CO2 in Earth's atmosphere and its beneficial effect on our
environment.
