The main culprits are the big oil companies. They made the carbon footprint term to make us feel guilty and shift the blame from the biggest polluters.
Yep! And I bet it’ll turn out in a few decades that it will come out they were also behind the Doomerism we’re seeing a lot of on social media these days. “Well it’s too late so why try?” Is much more comfortable than “We have to sacrifice a lot of comfort, but if we all try really hard we can do it.”
Weird thought, you ever think oil executives have nightmares about a global collective wanting to bring them to the guillotine?
They made the decisions that got us here, they have the power to turn this around, but we are to sacrifice everything while they continue to live in luxury and do nothing to help? Does this seriously seem reasonable to you?
The main culprit is likely the US military, except that they don’t allow themselves to be monitored.
Aren’t there really any numbers on this? I’d really like to know how aircraft carriers and container ships and other vehicles compare
That’s the point. There aren’t any numbers because the military does not allow oversight.
Look at this shit about the Abrams Tank and consider that armor is a small part of our military
This doesn’t even take into account active devastation caused by munitions testing
Indeed they corrupted the narrative to avoid blame, to maintain profits.
But who are they selling the oil to? Us.
We are all sinners in this
All sinners, yep. Cool story buddy.
Do you think oil companies just make the oil products, emit the pollution and pump it back below the surface of the earth?
No. We drove the cars that used it, we used the plastics, we asked for more and more and cheaper and cheaper and they said “sure thing bud 🤑”
