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.

@MishaVelthuis Carbon is the element that allows life to exist, as it makes the planet warm enough for liquid water by contributing to the greenhouse effect.

Maybe the devil is not such a baddie and just gets bad press?
