Correct me if I am wrong, but don't plants do this? Wouldn't just planting a fern have as much effect as buying and wearing this watch?

I wonder how long it takes one of these gadgets to erase the carbon footprint made by its manufacture, packaging, & shipping?

I wear a Citizen Eco-Drive watch. Not because it's 'green' but because it's solar-powered so never needs winding or batteries, and keeps perfect time. I've had it for about 6 years and it's never skipped a beat.

The scrubber will eventually get full. Then what?

No it's actually for real. And on its original post a commenter noted that for it to have scrubbed 12.56 lbs of C02, it would have to weigh about 13 lbs. itself by that point.

There is no technology that removes C02 and magically replaces it 1:1 with oxygen. However, the company is still looking for investors.

In commercial diving, we deal with CO2 scrubbers all the time during saturation diving operations and the use of closed circuit rebreathers. Without going into the physics and mechanics of removing CO2 from air, this is total BS!

As I've said previously, I'm all for anything that fleeces moonbats.

While this is actually a pretty cool looking watch, I'm not going to put a lot of faith in the technology given that the designer is a waiter. From his resume:

Waiter | 2007 - Present

atmosphere.

I think this is a great idea. The only issue is to promulgate regulations to prevent it from being worn near plants, who need the CO2. If the UN can appoint a Special Rapporteur to monitor and report (within 2 years, or $300 million, whichever comes last) on the implementation of this device vis-a-vis the potential impact on plant life, I am all in favor of it.

I can't wait to buy headgear that holds a CO2 scrubber in front of my mouth and nostrils.

Mark of the Beast?

Whatever you think, you gotta love free enterprise in action.

Hey, you want to cut down on carbon dioxide?

STOP BREATHING!

"I can't wait to buy headgear that holds a CO2 scrubber in front of my mouth and nostrils."

Here you go. Of course the wet suit is optional...

If these nuty green moonbats realy wanted to cut down on their carbon footprints then might i suggest they put DUCT TAPE over their mouths its a good way to curb all their HOT AIR their producing

And the carbon footprint of the device will always exceed the amount of carbon it removes.

Dumb but very liberal.

Oh! Oh! Oh! I've got a better idea!

How about advertising in Moonbat magazines for CO2 scrubbers for the home. Works indoors or out! Scientifically proven! Erase your carbon footprint!

They send in their money and in return they get a small bag of seeds and growing instructions.

Kevin, make them send in A LOT of money, as you will need it at the rate we're going.

What would you say to someone who was wearing this thing? Are they hopeless? And, check out that last word in the product description....

Actually, there are three major sources of CO2 output on Earth right now. In no specific order:

Volcanism. Boom! Earth belches from volcanoes. Earth farts through crustal cracks.

Man. We know this one.

Plant/microbial life. What? You thought plants ate CO2 and burped O2? Wrong. Here's a quick answer. On top of this, when plants and plant matter die like everything mortal does, they are fed upon by a wide range of microbes and insects in a symbiotic relationship the average person calls decomposition or mulching.

Want to eliminate the biggest source of CO2 during interglacials? Kill all life on Earth down to the bacteria. Simple as that. Anything less will ensure that the whole biospheric process from end to end re-establishes and produces CO2, and the even more efficient greenhouse gas methane.

Top greenhouse gas? WATER VAPOR.

You can see what needs to be done, can't you? We need to Tupperware all the oceans, lakes, streams, ponds, and puddles to prevent escape of water vapor to the air. AND kill off all life to stop it from sweating and exhaling.

But at least any aliens who visit will find nice well preserved doohickeys on some morons' wrists...

I think we all need to get together and come up a great merchandising concept to sell radically priced, unusable green devices.

It would be cool to sell stuff like this to moonbats with unreadable fine print saying it is for novelty only.

I think we need to see if we can't get somebody to surgically implant these things in the forehead--maybe between the eyes. If they were a goose shit green and the size of a fifty cent piece you could tell a moonbat from at least a hundred feet away. Maybe Obama would be willing to subsidize this with part of the health plan.

Looks like something that will be strapped to my ankle when I’m under Green-house arrest!

Somehow this reminds me of an idea some coworkers of mine had for a device. It would plug into your electrical outlets at home, and "filter out" all that harmful nuclear electricity. Of course, it would only be a nightlight. We didn't figure we could sell enough of them to make up for our loss of income when the Power Company (our employer) found us out and fired our butts....

I kind of remember when JIMMY CARTER blabbered about what to do about polution to his duaghter AMY and she said THROW IT AWAY and this dim-bulb doofus woders why he only lasted on term ITS BECUASE OF THIS OWN BLUNDERING SPUPIDHEADED STUPIDIDY

Someone should market (after assisted suicide becomes legal) a device powered by O2 that drives a spike into your head to end forever your carbon footprint and render you into enviroment friendly mulch.

Want to know what the funniest thing about it would be?

People would probably buy the damn thing!

Radical enviromental extremists who have read PAUL EHRILCH book THE POPULATION BOMB too many times want humans to become extinct HOW ABOUT IF GREEN MOONBATS BECOME EXTINCT INTEAD
