I didnt see a safety forum going so if this is misplaced please let me know.
I just read in my 8th graders homework that CO2 is odorless. Having had a face full of the gas as I bend over into my chest freezer where I ferment I can tell you that the stuff is down right offensive. It burns my nostrils like snorting cocacola.So I did a litle reading about it online here

and some other web pages but it seems like there is a lot of conflicting information and not a lot of agreement. Does any one have an expert opinion? I'm concerned because sometimes I have 8 5 gallon fermenters at full on fermentation at the same time in the basement. could the gass be harmful to me or my pets?
Thanks.
