Seven tons sounds very small. Seven billion sounds much larger, which is what the number actually is. And it’s per year, not per century.

In the past two hundred years, it’s two-hundred-seventy gigatons.

Seven billion tons per year?

Excuse me for doubting your figures, but that’s more than a ton per person on this planet, or more than 5.5 pounds per person per day.

That’s just not possible.
