Reduce Greenhouse Gases, Don't Mow the Lawn

As I understand the argument for global warming we are creating too many greenhouse gases. We are creating too much CO2. Now stop me if I am wrong, but plants absorb CO2 and release Oxygen. So the more plants we have and the larger the plants we have the more CO2 that would get absorbed.

I am also told that riding in my car or running other things that run with an internal combustion engine (like say a gas powered lawn mower) will create more greenhouse gases. And as far as that is concerned I believe that when I get exercise I also will generate more CO2 than when I am at rest.

So dear, it is not that I am too lazy to mow the lawn. I am just trying to prevent global warming.

[Chris has not really mowed his own lawn in years but has a guy. And his idea of aerobic exercise is fast typing]
