    Gigantic ships burning all those extra fuel would surely accelerate climate changes even further. Everyone, make sure to leave your car and take public transport or bicycle to offset all those extra carbon /s

      Climate change is the least of the reasons folks should be doing that.

      Idea for an Onion article headline:

      “Anxious man from Ohio catapults humanity toward unending climate doom”

      Tagline: “Shaker Heights resident Stephen Brown, a 32 self-described “yuppie liberal” living with his girlfriend in the popular Cleveland suburb was the human who tipped the scales when he forgot to recycle last week, an anonymous source at EPA tells us.”

      That’s bullshit and you know it. We need to run our cars more to maintain the ratio of terrestrial and maritime emissions or risk throwing the whole delicate balance into chaos.

        We need to compromise. Bike to work, but leave your car idling in your driveway while you’re gone
