"gee, if our governor is so upset about co2.. perhaps he should refuse
tourists and immigrants (from other states and countries) and restrict our
breathing. Are there any stats as to how much co2 we exhale daily? "

After donning my knight-in-shining-armor suit, I diligently researched and found the following:

Try this:

A quote from it: "Over the course of a year, an average human expires more than half a metric TON of carbon dioxide gas"

Another California CO2 source that needs to be addressed:
http://quake.wr.usgs.gov/prepare/factsheets/CO2/
A quote from the page: "A preliminary estimate of the current rate of CO2 gas emission at Mammoth Mountain is 1,300 tons per day."

Governor Gray Davis, are you listening???
