A comment on Cement Produces More Pollution Than All the Trucks in the World. Parent comment
I could not see any graphics/media (the website is a mess. It tries to load a dozen 3rd party resources). But the article is pretty optimistic:
> Now is the time to buy property in Greenland – before it too turns green...
> Yeah sure, we can't individually give up on our beef sandwich
I'm sure there will be cities in these new deserts. And people in these cities will still eat beef sandwiches.
If somebody talks like that, my impression is always that it's more about restriction and reduction than about saving the world.
> Cool, how much? IIRC, sustainability would require an individual average below 2 teqCO2/year.
Cool, is there a CO2 calculator somewhere?
