Re: [ClimateChangeAction] COyou2 - Saving the planet one breath at a time - oh no!!!


>*COyou2* - putting the *you* back into CO2 <http://www.cou2.com/>


I don't flamin' believe it!! - the classical snake oil sales pitch
Can't see them selling tho.. but "there is a sucker born every minute"
(attributed to Barnum).



did you read the rest...

"Each day every human being breathes out an average of 1 kg of CO2. That's
0.38 tonnes a year. Now multiply that by 6.7 billion! That's a lot of CO2.

COyou2 person carbon capture systems allow you to store that CO2 and do
your bit to stop climate change.

How does the COyou2 personal carbon capture system work?
The COyou2 patented technology works by filtering the air you breathe out,
capturing the carbon in a convenient lightweight backpack.

As you breathe out into the tube, the carbon dioxide passes through a
solution of ammonium nitrate and the reaction allows the carbon to be
isolated. The carbon is then stored in exchangeable inner bags that can
then be sequestered in any nearby location including your own backyard."



..... and there is a picture of something that looks suspiciously like a
standard aircraft life-vest -
"Now Johnny - pull this over your head, and pull down sharply on the tabs...."
" Yeah mum, why don't I just pull on the middle one - it squirts..."

I think there is great opportunity for some fairly hilarious jokes and
cartoons on this one...

nuff said.. and they wasted $$ patenting it!!
