    For anyone wondering the difference between 370 million tonnes and 37.5 billion tonnes, it’s about 37.5 billion tonnes.

      370 million is 0.37 billion, so the difference is about 37.13 billion.

      370 million tons of carbon from a single source is a considerable amount.

      370 million is just under 1% of 37.5 billion. It’s obviously far from the majority but I can see it being something that should be addressed.
