Lol. The idea that you think individual people making 60k a year where they are largely traveling nowhere other than to work and back are the ones that decrease their emissions by 97% is just bonkers.
That metric in the article, in conjunction with the OOP’s article, which quite likely accurate, doesn’t accrue enough accuracy on where the weight of blame lies imo.
The correlated idea borderlines on original sin nonsense. And yes, while simply existing in the inefficient system that is the US rises your carbon footprint, there are far more significant measures that could be made than telling people edging the poverty line to reduce their emissions.
Also your link you keep posting around doesn’t seem to account for cost of living, PPP, taxation etc, or if it does, it doesn’t seem to source it. It would be interesting to see how those numbers change with those variables accounted for.





Peak comment. Did you RTA? Because it does the opposite of what you propose, no factual evidence, and largely biased language.
So…? We’re just supposed to take their word that the sky isn’t blue because in the past they’ve said the the sky is blue?
