    They included income tied to emissions related to the operation of a business…

    Reminds me of how I threw out more in one shift in fast food than my household did in a month.

      Your total trash footprint is higher than someone who lives in a mega-mansion but has a full-time housekeeper. They in fact have no trash footprint, since they never take out trash. You should be ashamed.
