People often make wrong climate choices, a study says. One surprise is owning a dog - AP News

I'm sure a big part of the climate change comes from bureaucracy. In Old Yeller times, dog ownership came with certain final responsibilities. Now, the price of a bullet has been replaced by doggie chemotherapy that costs tens of thousands of dollars. And as you point out, not even Kristi Noem is supposed to do the deed herself - she's supposed to call in a dog-euthanizing priest with the right cassock and incantations to square it with God. All that costs money ... and carbon dioxide.
Yeah, not putting a bullet in my dog.. I'll call in the other kind of shot when it's time. Sadly enough, had to do just that last Monday.

Mondays invariably suck, condolences, and Kristi Noem shot her dog, but not to save the climate.

She just likes shooting animals.

MAGA.
 




Don't fly, don't own a dog, help the planet.

Pretty easy! If you already don't do those things, then maybe move on to smaller things that still help, but help less.
You have to stop letting the Dooms Day Prophets scam you !


The ONLY way to stop Man's impact on Climate is to REDUCE THE NUMBER OF HUMANS ON EARTH !
Until that's talked about rest assured that they only want more money an power over YOU ! ESPECIALLY THE DEM's / Socialist/ Commies!!!

Overpopulation is a problem.
 
Climate change is theoretical, owning a dog is actual.

"Climate change is theoretical"

Tell that to the victims of increasingly intense and frequent wildfires, floods, and hurricanes. AND a lot of folks in the global South whose homes are being destroyed by rising sea levels as we speak.

I mean I guess it figures that YOU'D call it theoretical because right wingers can never conceive the suffering of others as real, until something bad happens to them specifically.
 
I’ll leave the global warming deniers to continue their circle jerk. Carry on…

Denying GW, and being unwilling to do a tenth of what it would take to put a meaningful dent in it, are two sides of the same filthy coin, one that represents the vast majority of people in the US.
 
You are misrepresenting the article and the study.

Your thread title is a flat out lie.


What the study actually says is "people aren't very good at identifying relative impact of various choices."
Yes; they think flying and owning a dog don't harm the planet.

They are very wrong.
 
There is zero chance you are a real person.
That's a low number!

A real person wrote this AP article. And a different real person performed the study that the first person reported on.

Probably important for other real people to spread this information to other real people.

Do you fly that much that this made you defensive?
 
Few things puzzle me more than a vegan with a cat.
Why?

They are probably lonely, and desire companionship. Pets provide this with no effort or positive traits needed beyond the acquisition of the purchase price.

Cats are obligate carnivores.
 
On today’s episode of Manipulating Brainwashed Right Wingers, we’re manufacturing outrage about fake stories of libs taking your toys away over climate change.
 
If I have to choose between the climate and my dog, I guess it's going to get hotter.
