North Vancouver becomes world's first city to force gas stations to put stupid

Police stations have their own pumps. They never fill up at commercial gas stations.
Don't compare US to Canada. While the police DO have their own facilities, they also use regular gas stations as well, not just for gas, but to visit on breaks, to get coffee or snacks as well.

Again, your opinion is unwanted.

As for CO2, here is something I found, that explains it better than I ever could.

"CO2 is inert (as far as human breathing is concerned) = it does not react chemically in our lungs.
Unfortunately for us, we DO need something that reacts... molecular oxygen.

Breathing CO2 is the same as not breathing at all (you lungs get filled with something that does not contribute anything you need). Same as "holding your breath", you can continue to exist (and even work a bit) for a few seconds - or even a bit more than a minute if you were trained for it - but eventually you would pass out from the lack of breathing.

CO (carbon MONOxide) is poisonous: it would actually rob your lungs of whatever loose oxygen they still contain and they would enter the bloodstream and then steal any free oxygen that is still around). It does not take much CO to poison us. That is why people do die from carbon monoxide poisoning, even though there is also some oxygen in the air they breathe. The CO actually does nasty stuff.
The CO2 just takes up the place that oxygen would have taken, thereby robbing you of oxygen.

Plants do convert CO2 and H2O into oxygen (and sugar), as long as they are provided UV light (to kick-start the chlorophyl reaction) and the rest of the conditions are OK. However, they do not "scrub" the air (they don't clear out the CO2, they just take some of it) and they don't guarantee that the liberated oxygen won't be taken up by other reactions (like rusting any iron around).

The advantage of using plants is that they will also give you food... eventually (it is a slow process).
For human breathing in enclosed spaces, you are better off with chemical "scrubbers", usually made of highly oxygenated molecules that release their excess oxygen when in contact with water and CO2,"

Have you ever seen a police car at a gas station? :lol:

Yes, I have, multiple times.

Your threads are as pointless as your opinion about my country.

It's funny, every time you claim to post "scientific evidence", whenever someone challenges you with actual facts, all you say is "you're wrong".

Anyway, my point is, Canada has no role in reducing CO2. Even if Canada disappeared from the world, CO2 will still rise at more than 2 ppm per year.

In China and India they don't even allow environmentalists let alone something harmless even beneficial like CO2.

Canada is way too liber all.

In that case, why do you care? It's our country, we decide our environmental laws, and we don't do it for the world, we do it for us.

Not only are you misinformed about the level of emission that Canada produces, you're entire point falls apart by your own words.
 
.
This year, CO2 level surpasses 403 ppm, up from 280 ppm pre industrial revolution. China and India drive CO2 emissions. Not Canada.
doesn't matter :pop: liberals don't care.
 
. .
Those stats are not accurate. China and India burn coal. China and India have way higher CO2 emission per capita than Canada.
Ok, so the world should now go by an authoritative accurate source called ultron (you)! Oh yeah!

climate change stickers on gas pumps.

Climate change stickers mandatory on North Vancouver gas pumps - British Columbia - CBC News

How are they going to enforce that? Have police come by every gas station and check every pump every single day? Bet people get fed up and tear them off.

China and India emit like 100 times as much CO2 as Canada does. You know what happens to liberals in China and India. They get arrested and thrown in jail. Canada. Canada. Canada. Tsk tsk. Way too liber all :mad:
not our problem,

we are going to pollute more and more, stop us if u can.
 
.
They should care. Climate change was invented by the third world after the cold war to drag down America. If they don't care, then they will lose the white house.

Who unleashed Climatism? | Watts Up With That?

US is the Top Level emitter of CO2 by per captia . and you accuse India and China for being that . Roughly we are 2/7 of the world (China and India combined).

I will be sure to shed a tear reading the sticker as I fill up my SUV. :D

China and India drastically under report their CO2 emissions. They burn coal.
 
. .
any idea on per capita CO2 emissions ?


A lot because they burn coal. A lot of people in China and India burn non commercial coal for heating and that's never counted in their CO2 emission reports.
 
.
@ultron what is the purpose of these stickers? Never heard of them in Eastern Canada. Does it make people buy less gas for their cars?
