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.

  • Supposedly, 666 being a bad number is a mistranslation, and the actual bad number is 616. This is according to an old episode of QI.

    Or you could not believe in evil numbers.
