It is still an appropriate comparison because CO2 is only ONE type of greenhouse gas, and greenhouse gases are just one type of pollutant; just as diabetes or cancer are each one type of disease.
I was comparing greenhouse gases to diseases. One might be worse than the other, but that doesn't mean that they both don't deserve to be dealt with.
BTW, what in your opinion is a worse type of pollutant? What is so bad that we must ignore greenhouse gas emmissions?
