    Oh I’m reasonably confident if we got rid of cars that’d be a good thing for the climate.

    If there was plentiful mass transit the need for electric cars is reduced greatly.

    Cars are terrible forms of mass transport and societies need to deprioritise them in city planning.

    The idea that we can just keep doing what we’re doing and replace all ICEs with BEVs and it’ll solve climate change is not really the full story.

    Now if you’ll excuse me I’ll go back to my mouth breathing.

      Yeah I want cars to die honestly but if I were stupid enough to think it’s going to happen, then … I’d be a moron.

      Look into going vegan, it’s an even more impactful step that someone can personally make.

        going vegan has no impact at all

          Do you have any sources for that? Literally have no idea how you come to that conclusion

              I’m not sure what you think that proves. World population has grown and people eat more animal products than ever, which is part of my argument that we should be cutting back on animal products and eat more humane and more efficient food sources.

              Thanks for linking to proof of my point.

                  How do you figure? Genuinely don’t know how you could come to that conclusion.

                  Also, why are you arguing so aggressively about me being vegan? Sounds like denial or guilt for killing animals that you don’t have to tbh

                    I don’t care if you are vegan, but don’t lie to yourself or others about whether it makes any difference

                    How do you figure?

                    no fewer animals are killed than before you became vegan.
