If billions of people on the planet were in biostasis via cryogenic storage, would that large population cause any environmental problems? If we are talking about the carbon footprint of manufacturing liquid nitrogen big-time, what is the correct answer?

@Charles Tandy,
I suspect that the carbon footprint for maintaining liquid nitrogen cryogenic containers (lots of electricity) is probably larger than the footprint for production of liquid nitrogen (a one-time deal).
