Breathing in public to be banned

Buoyed by the response to his pet project - the ban on smoking in public places, India's health minister Anbumani Ramadoss is preparing to take on a greater challenge. Singling out carbon dioxide as the most dangerous, but avoidable GHG, he plans to attack a root cause - breathing. "Everyone has the right to an excessive CO2-free atmosphere", he breathed.

Dr Ramadoss also clarified that he is not banning breathing altogether - people can breathe within the confines of their homes, for instance.
