The earth is self cleaning and self recycling, we do not and cannot "add" to what there is not.. Neither can we "take away" stuff from the earth.
WE as humans ARE made up of CARBON, we NEED CARBON to live, OUR BODIES USE CARBON in order to live.
Plants USE CARBON to flourish, without they would DIE, plants like trees, flowers, grass take in carbon, they DEPEND on carbon IN THE AIR, without is they would no longer be. Scrub all of the carbon out of the air and not only will the plants die, WE will die to..
Yes, their is carbon "sequestered" deep inside the earth, but if we (us humans) do not release some of that carbon (natural gas and oil), the EARTH WILL EVENTUALLY RELEASE IT as part of it's own natural cycles (earth quakes, volcanos and even natural oil tar pits and so on).
This is complete and utter bunk easily refuted by evidence.
We have had accurate, direct, and regular measurements of atmospheric CO2 since 1958. At that time, it was 316 ppm. Today, it is 413 ppm.

Yes, we are made up of carbon, and we need carbon to live. You are also made up of water, and need water to live. You can drown in water. Just because you contain it and need it does not mean it is not dangerous in sufficient quantities.
The National Science Academies of every single nation on the planet agree that the rise of CO2 is man-made, and that it is causing climate change.
Now, I personally do not worry about climate change. Money always wins. It doesn't matter what the right thing to do is, if the money says burn coal until the sky is black, that is what we will do. So there is no point sweating it. But, it's also ludicrous to think that there is no problem.
The good news is that it looks like renewable will win out in cost.
