Aren't you thinking of nitrogen or something? I think too much CO2 
triggers the "I am suffocating!" panic response. I also vaguely hearing
about a work accident at a semiconductor facility, where a worker went
into a room filled with pure nitrogen (no oxygen) and died, never being
aware anything was wrong. The body doesn't "notice" not enough oxygen,
it's CO2 that drives the need to breathe harder.
