CO2 in perspective

The Earth’s atmosphere is represented by the blue area above.
The area represented by the combination of the red and black lines, and the yellow square, represents the amount of CO2 in said atmosphere.
The black line represents CO2 produced by human beings.
Oh, and…the yellow square is Canada’s share in said amount of human-produced C02.
Personally, for me, the analysis more or less stops at the black line; it’s already insignificant when compared against…pretty much the rest of the chart. And we’re to believe that this nigh-insignificant contribution to the atmosphere is supposed to be heading the planet toward ruin?
That said, the chart would also seem to suggest that a carbon tax imposed on Canadians would be a pretty silly thing.
