Why only pick on CO2?
It along with 3 other greenhouse gases, CO2 make up less than 10% of the problem. Why don't you among others never mention the biggest warming culprit in the atmosphere, waper vapor at 90%? Guess what "clean" fuels emit into the atmosphere?

And if CO2 is such a bad thing (i.e., plants can't live without it), how many tonnes of CO2 does the additional 6B inhabitants put out in a years time in the last 150 years? Theres more to the equation than reducing airline flights or the burning fossil fuels as more studies are released showing a different reasoning than what's been spewed since the 70s. Be careful what you wish for.
