If everyone held their breath for 1 minute each day, would that reduce greenhouse gas emissions?

Answer 1

Great question!

I personally have gotten down to three breaths per hour for Goddess Gaia. It's admittedly tougher to jog, but I believe she appreciates my efforts.

Answer 2

No. All you would do is save up 1 minute of CO2 and exhale it all at once. Anyway, people emissions do not contribute to global warming because that CO2 came from the air originally when the plants grew that the person ate. It is only CO2 from coal and oil that contributes to global warming, because that carbon has been locked up under ground for millions of years.

Answer 3

hahaha.... very nice logic. But our human body will make up that 1 min after you start breathing again. Their are many ways to reduce greenhouse effect and i do car pooling.. at least some contribution from my side.

Answer 4

No, your body function is the same. Holding your breath only postpones the emission of CO2

Answer 5

i'd rather fix my engine to reduce gas emissions... rather than holding my breathe for 1 min each day... its ridiculous

Answer 6

I have an idea, why don't you hold your breath for all of us if you believe that will work. Hold it for a minute for each person on earth.

Answer 7

Technically it would, but by an insignificant amount. It would be much more effective to cut down on pollution

Answer 8

No, it'd be better if many held their breath, permanently.

Answer 9

why stop breath for one min each day better stop for ever take pinch of sodium cynide.

Answer 10

yeah you do that
