As long as it doesn't impact too much the rest of society. For instance, people aren't free to drive a tank on the highway.
If we believe data on global warming, and if we consider it's an issue to be addressed (and most people believe both), some choices which are available now should be restricted in the future.

- yodsanklai 6y agoI don't think blaming is a solution. I think some choices should be heavily discouraged or simply forbidden. I don't expect people to willingly lose comfort and convenience. Unfortunately, this is the only way to go if you want to reach the objective fixed by the Paris agreement [1]. CO2 emissions should be reduced by 5% every year.
