oh my goodness -- the sky is falling, the sky is falling -- what ever shall we do

>>>Coal-burning power plants are the largest U.S. source of carbon dioxide pollution -- they produce 2.5 billion tons every year. Automobiles, the second largest source, create nearly 1.5 billion tons of CO2 annually<<<

oh, wait -- how much is that in a percentage of the weight of the atmosphere ??? -- maybe .0000000000001 or so percent

The average mass of the atmosphere is about 5,000 trillion metric tons
