While most people think global warming is primarily caused by traffic, the fact is buildings- from skyscrapers to the family home are responsible for more CO2 emissions than automobiles. More than twice as much. Buildings need to power lights, power mechanical systems, even what we call “plug loads” for computers, and other various electronic devices. All of that power is being demanded by a power plant that emits Co2 into the atmosphere. Produced for General Motors
