    The emissions from 20 cars driving in circles for a few hours a week could continue until the end of humanity and still be just a drop in the bucket compared to the amount of damage the production industry has done up to this point.

      bud the bucket overflowed a long, long time ago. now it’s pouring over the rim, and you’re like: eh, it’s just a few thousand tons of CO2 every year, for funsies, it won’t matter.

      it all matters. you’re just too vroom vroom to fucking care.

        The emissions from the cars themselves isn’t even 2000 tons of CO2. That’s 1/200000 of 1% of annual emissions. If you’re that concerned, you shouldn’t be on this site because the server, your computer, and your router are all adding CO2 to the atmosphere.

            Then you better not live in a house, turn your lights on, use your computer, go to the grocery store, go see a movie, go to a concert, buy anything at all, travel any other way than by foot. Or you could put your effort into something that’ll actually make a difference.

              quack quack quack, sure bud, you know the math, it’s easy to figure out: you’re adding to it… FOR FUN.

              I don’t.

              Don’t worry, one day you’ll get there, and meanwhile, your children will rightfully despise you regardless.
