As you walk out of Penn Station on the Madison Square Garden side you're practically smacked in the face with a giant sign that shows the amount of greenhouse gases entering our atmosphere. I took this video on August 12, 2009, and the numbers are continuously growing. The video shows you just how quickly too. According to experts, humans release 6400000000000 pounds of carbon into the atmosphere each year. This is in the form of CO2 and CH4, carbon dioxide and methane, both of which are greenhouse gases contributing to the warming of our Earth. Sure baseball in January may seem like a good thing but as the ice caps are melting, many coastal regions are threatened, including Long Island and Manhatten.
