But this misses many sources of CO2. If we want to limit C)2, by taxes, permits or other restraint it is better to do so further up the carbon cycle - when carbon leaves the oil well, the coal mine, the gas field, or in the case of countries, the port of entry. Within a year it will be CO2. Yet the time scale of global warming is decades. I urge people like yourselves to keep track of carbon entering the surface pool and compare your more local findings with bthe more general picture.
