Are we strangling ourselves? I think so, no need to worry about some serial killer doing it, we are already strangling ourselves.

We know that just about everything in nature cycles itself, from water to oxygen to nitrogen to carbon. However I think we are strangling ourselves by using fossil fuels, or at least we will. Even though carbon cycles, much of it is stored in the form of fossil fuels, in the ground and not in the atmosphere, but if we keep burning it and adding it to the air our air will become diluted. It is comparable to having a small home water fountain, the water cycles around, in this case it is the carbon already in the atmosphere. Now imagine if you will taking a gallon of water (representing the carbon in the earth), and pouring it into that little water fountain, it is now over flowing. Take this into context of real life, instead of having a small mess to clean up, we now have less breathable air. We are now choking. Will this happen? I don't know, it is just an interesting thought that occurred to me.

   what do you think?

Take this into context, without OIL, we don't have to worry about BREATHING! Every civilization since the dawn of time needed energy for everything, you are smart enough to know the list, so I won't list them. We are a DRIVEN nation. Most of us MUST work. Here in Ohio, the jobs are leaving for other countries with less rules. Rules do change the Atmosphere of employment, agriculture, travel, education, that list is endless. In reality, our being alive DEPENDS on Fossil Fuel. Those like you with interesting thoughts, have caused other Nations, once considered third world to drill right off of OUR COASTLINES! You folks don't want Nuclear Energy. Solar is expensive, wind is limited and water is basically harnessed. I am under the impression that oil below ground is situated in large lakes or small oceans, thus, those drilling, (CHINA, VIET NAM, and some South American Countries, including our friends, the Mexicans) are taking our oil. Do you care. Tell you what, if you are worried about the air we breathe, stop BREATING!! LMAO

The question was more in the context of not factoring in practical application.

Even so, I think it is still possible to drive, even still using fossil fuels. I figure we can manually cycle the carbon.

just bear with me on what is the roots of an idea. A giant tower is raised, it is a giant air filter, the carbon is somehow diverted back to the ground where it is manufactured into some sort of solid-carbon-mass, like coal, that can be used as an energy source. Once it is burned the process repeats.
