As for the CO2 output, on face value that's a ridiculous statement but I'll assume there's some catch to this that makes you right or you wouldn't have said it. I'm actually interested to hear

RENEWABLE ENERGY.
Solar, wind, and hydro power for example, don't produce C02 when making electricity. When using electricity from these sources no emissions, C02 or otherwise, are produced. No matter how obscene the amount of electricity you use.
Al Gore has paid for the renewable energy infrastructure to provide his entire home with electricity.
How can I make this more clear?
I've done the same thing with Greenmax from Enmax.
Infact, my electricity use is so low because I have a small place that I pay for more renewable energy infrastructure than I use. That means some of you chumps are getting wind power thanks to me. That is what we call NEGATIVE carbon dioxide output.
Of course I make up for that by burning natural gas and driving my car among other things.
