I don't know. But Co2 is good for plants and poisonous to us. So I suppose if you can afford it then the point comes when it makes you ill.

No Co2 is not really harming to humans but carbon monoxide is. Just watch out for carbon monoxide it will kill u if u breath it in long enough . We let out co2 out of are body after we breath oxygen. We would all be sick if c02 was a harm to us .

So it would be healthy to breathe in Co2? It's fine to breathe in copius amounts of carbon dioxide? I always imagined it was a poison to the human body. I really wasn't getting confused with carbon monoxide. That shit's the silent killer, the reason we have to have our gas fires annually serviced.

So if you are in a room that contains far more Co2 than oxygen it doesn't matter? Sounds mad to me, but you're probably right as I haven't checked it out yet. I have just always assumed. Often the things you think you know you don't know at all...

Just checked it out and carbon dioxide is harmful to the human body. It's just that there isn't enough of it in the atmosphere for it to be considered a danger.

C02 displaces oxygen. Too much of it in a confined space will kill you, but you die from a lack of oxygen not co2 toxicity. C02 usually will not be deadly untill concentrations of 10,000 ppm+. My gas detector at work sounds an alarm at 5000ppm.

carbon dioxide is extremely bad to have leaking into your living quarters. Small amounts will give you the worst migraine headaches you have ever heard of. Larger amounts can be fataal as pointed out by somebody else..

Plants also actually use a bit of oxygen also, especially at night.
