Not really, but CO2 and H2O are both materials that we gather from the atmosphere, generally for the same purposes. Our gardens get water and carbondioxide for the plants. Why is that okay, and gathering it in a barrel is not? That's what I don't understand. The difference between a plant containing water and a barrel containing water is subtle at best.
