This measure may not be the right thing, but isn't it also controlling in a different way to change the composition of other's atmospheric gases in a harmful way? Just because it is diffuse responsibility doesn't mean it is less controlling in aggregate.
- whiddershins 6y agoAffecting is a word that is distinct from controlling, I think the concepts have a relationship but aren’t the same.
- macinjosh 6y agoWe all exhale CO2? Is your breath controlling me!??
- kneel 6y agoThat's a great point, we should attempt to limit respiration.
- macinjosh 6y agoYou first ;)
- cma 6y agoLess than 1% of emissions are from breath, which we can all agree is necessary and not currently above the CO2 re-absorption rate. Here we are talking about achieving a more even Malliard reaction on flapjacks. Cooking may not be significant enough to worry about first either, I don't know, but it is a form of control (free choice of more evenly browned flapjacks for no choice of of someone else facing faster timeframe to be flooded out of their nation or city).
