1g CO2 per gram of paper[/url] and about 7g CO2 for Google search 

Very old link there, talked about 200m to 500m searches per day which sounded low, a quick google (!!) says it's more like 5.6 billion per day.  And a google search of 'how much co2 per google search' (!!!) says 0.2 grams.

It's all only a matter of time before the only option is drinking your own recycled urine like Kevin Costner in Waterworld.

[SA Chris]

or your own sweat like Dune.

Not there yet Baldrick.

You'll all be glad of cold brew nettle urine tea when the Climate Wars have disrupted global supply chains. You'll sit there with your fellow refugees, keeping warm around a burning bundle of now-useless £50 notes, taking it in turns to swap stories and rumours.
