Working Remotely Can More Than Halve an Office Employee’s Carbon Footprint

The (often) unsaid truth about carbon footprint is that dead people produce no carbon. The lineage of the movement can be directly traced to Neomalthusian and eugenicists.

No, dead people produce about 13 kg of carbon.

You could say this about any pov that discourages any behavior: "Dead people don't murder, and so the movement to stop murder can be traced directly to Neomalthusian and eugenicists."

It's obnoxious to exaggerate the perspective of people you disagree with, just to make them seem less reasonable. Those who want people to decrease their carbon footprint don't want you dead, they just want people to decrease their carbon footprint.
