  1. Genuinely suprised its that low. That’s like 1.1 million cars per year.

    Edit: when you think about all the carrier groups, the missiles, the refuelers, then the burn off from hit oil infrastructure… doesn’t seem possible.

  2. I mean that’s bad, but on the other hand it seems rather unlikely that the overall effects of this war will be more CO2 emitted than not.

    At least Cuba has been emitting much less in the past months, an environmentalist’s dream. Iran will also, if Trump follows through on his threats of bombing their power stations.

    Don’t worry, I’ve been cutting back on my daily private jet trips to help off set the emissions. /s

    Thank goodness I’m doing my part today with my disintegrating paper straw and awful tasting wooden utensils!

    I think that was how much that Iceland volcano made that last big eruption

  7. I actually fucking hate this. All of it. I just finished working all weekend and left work thinking that it might be the last time I work at all. A weekend spent barely seeing friends or family, what if this will be it and I wasted that time?

    I’m from Scotland so maybe I’m just being overly anxious, but I don’t see an off ramp for this situation and it’s just getting worse. It’s terrifying. I don’t want to die man, I want to live. I want my family, my little nieces, my friends, I want to see them all have a future. I just want to make a bit of money to enjoy the time I have pursuing my interests, being with those close to me and not have to worry about all this shit.

    But instead this might escalate to nuclear war this week. And if it doesn’t, the economic impact is gonna cripple most people’s standard of living around the globe if it continues. And even if we all manage to get through that and stave it off, we have headlines like this of the looming climate threat to contend with. And even if myself and those around me escape all that somehow, millions and maybe even billions of others won’t. Even if one bad thing doesn’t happen, there’s loads more we’ve set up in the not so distant future. The world’s such a fucking mess, I’m scared, and I wish it was all just different. How are any of us meant to live a fulfilling life like this? The only ones who seem to get a chance at that are the evil pedophile cunts who deny the rest of us any sort of opportunity to enjoy anything.

    I’d like to read an explainer about the oil rain that came down on the citizens of Tehran after they blew up their refinery. Those folks need health assistance ASAP.

    Don’t worry, I drive an electric car to work on roads paved with oil to work at a facility that gets shipments of petrolium chemicals and plastic driven by diesel semis. And I got LED bulbs. I’m doing my part. Yes my power comes from natural gas and coal plants.

  10. Yes, but the real question is how much CO2 was saved by people not talking about the Trump Epstein Files?

    Does this take into account the dramatic reduction in flying by several of the world’s largest airlines? An A380 would use something like 100 tonnes of fuel between Dubai and Europe.

  12. … Well, Mr „No wars“ president doesn’t believe in Climate change, either, so I guess he won’t care one way or the other.

    He also hates Wind energy – because they … „Throw off the whales“?

    …. I don’t even… z.z

    This is an exercise in just how much we can fuck things up as a species on this planet. Fucking nice one humans well done, don’t put us in charge of anything important we’ll just fuck it up

    5 mili tonnes? So 5kg of CO2… Learn the difference between mili (m) and mega (M).
