re: "and yet we are to believe that the off gassing will somehow weigh 20 pounds in carbon dioxide...."

I hate to say it, but I think it could be right.

CO2 consists of one carbon atom (atomic weight 12) and two oxygen atoms (total atomic weight 30) - which come not from the gasoline but from the atmosphere. Put them together and each carbon atom in the gasoline yields a CO2 molecule weighing 42. In other words, a carbon atom reacts and becomes a CO2 molecule that is 3.5 times as heavy.

Gasoline isn't pure carbon and it doesn't ALL react, but I could definitely see how 6.5 pounds of gasoline could push approximately 20 pounds of CO2 into the atmosphere.

This is incredulous.

"Burning one gallon of gasoline puts nearly 20lbs of carbon dioxide into our atmosphere. #climate"

Here is exactly why what these PROPOGANDISTS cannot possibly be believed.

Let's do some simple math.

ONE GALLON of water weight 8.33 pounds. ONE gallon of gasoline weighs 6.2 pounds.

HOW, after one gallon in RAW FORM of gas is BURNED, which weighed only 8.33 pounds to begin with, possibly add 20 pounds of carbon dioxide to the atmosphere????

Let's see. HMMMMMMMMMM.

SOmething that weighs 6.2 pounds is burned, consumed completely by fire, and yet we are to believe that the off gassing will somehow weigh 20 pounds in carbon dioxide....


YEP. I always knew these people were screwballs and just plain STUPID, but this really demonstrates it well.

If people just did not know how much a gallon of gas weighed they might have been able to pull off this bunch of magic to support their NON-provable claim.....
