Rising CO2 Levels May Trigger Cognitive Impairment, Says New Study

  There is absolutely no air shortage whatsoever. (Discretely opens a can of Perri-air.)

  Idiocracy. (which my auto correct promptly changed to democracy... He he....)

  I was having some symptoms that I couldn't identify a cause of, and after a friend mentioned it, I got an indoor CO2 monitor (to accompany my CO monitor), and what it shows is interesting albeit inconclusive. On a daily basis, it shows lows of maybe 400 ppm, which is similar to outdoors. Usually it shows highs of maybe 1000 ppm overnight, which I think is from exhalation, unless it's my furnace. But sometimes it gets up to 1500-2000 ppm, which seems kind of high, and makes me wonder what the cause is or if there are any health effects. For a while, I thought that the high levels were causing headaches and mental impairment, but the correlation seems to have broken down, so maybe it was just a coincidence. Anyway, I think that realistically, direct health effects of CO2 are not going to be the most relevant aspect of climate change, since people generally do tolerate living indoors.

  That is hilarious (and evidently already a problem) May I pay more tax to make sure the government protects me from that?
