Carbon is the work of the devil.

Carbon is the work of the devil.
Last Friday, during a class about the short and long term organic #carbon cycle, a student raised his hand:
"So, 6 protons, 6 neutrons, and 6 electrons...", 666....carbon must be the work of the devil."
Maybe this can help us sell carbon neutrality to religious conservatives.
Carbon neutrality means carbon dioxide neutrality. Carbon is just an element and literally everything you see and don't see has some of it in it.
Also, around 2% of our sun's energy production involves the Bethe-Weizsäcker cycle which is a cyclical fusion reaction using carbon, nitrogen and oxygen. (The main source of energy production is through a proton-proton chain since our sun is too small to rely on the CNO-cycle entirely)
