if they put out the tire fire that is the sens, your emissions would be much less



I'd feel like an asshole if I made a fire joke back

Our fire will go on for a while ty

to a certain degree I don't agree with you

Canadian standards for emissions are already way stricter than a lot of the big polluters so we're already way ahead in terms of emissions control

Also, Canada is already carbon neutral, why do we have to spend much more billions hindering our economy to reduce the world's carbon amount by <2% just so India or China can continue to produce as much as they want?

PS: climate change is real, but the cause of it being CO2 is highly debatable also the carbon tax has been proven in multiple countries to just be a tax grab and doesn't actually affect a country's carbon output


we're also one of the most sparsely populated countries in the world, which is why we also have a huge carbon sink in our forests and marshes. evidently it's a natural advantage we did nothing to get that no one else can have, short of slaughtering most of the world's population.

I don’t buy this, having forests and a small population are great, but taking credit for it is dumb. That’s not a design, it’s just the reality of being a young country in the far north. That doesn’t mean we can polute more, and it doesn’t help that damning per capital stat. We’re not the worst offender in the world, sure, but that’s not the goal.
