I think I thought of this in grade 7 or grade 8, I'm not really sure, but my college biology teacher found it pretty interesting. We were discussing about how if we exercise more, our lung capacity increases..
From this, I thought of something, if we all become extremely fat, wouldn't that help us reduce our carbon footprint? When we exercise a lot, as a result our lung capacity increase, which increases the amount of oxygen we take in, and in the final results, increases the amount of CO2 we take out. If the entire world was obese, wouldn't that reduce the amount of CO2 significantly? And thinking more about this, if we were to breathe half of what we do today, wouldn't that also reduce the amount of CO2 our bodies take out?
