Here is a little blurb from the following site...

The Volvo Group today opened the first vehicle plant in the world that is completely free from carbon dioxide (CO2): Volvo Trucks' plant in Ghent, Belgium. The Volvo Group's efforts pertaining to CO2-free plants are fully in line with EU's goal for reducing carbon-dioxide emissions by 20% in Europe by 2020. A combination of biomass, wind, solar and bio-oil provides the renewable energy to manufacture around 35,000 trucks per year.

My only question, is how do they keep their employees from exhaling? Any can plants really exists with CO2?:D
