Can we change the title to:
Climate impact of wild pigs less than 0.001% of car impact
edit: I’d also allow:
Climate impact of cars greater than 1000x the population of wild pigs
- kokanator 5y agoThere certainly are bigger problems to solve than this one. The article almost reads like, "We need a good reason to allow the reduction in nuisance wild pig populations."
- reidjs 5y agoSeriously. Just say “wild pigs destroy $X of crops per year”. Tying them to carbon output is either ignorant or manipulative.
- anigbrowl 5y agoYes, it's very manipulative. 'You care about the environmental impact of cars, don't you? Well we're not going to do anything about that but you should help us out with our problem instead.'
- jokethrowaway 5y agoWhat bothers me the most about cars is pm pollution ruining our lungs and giving us cancer Pigs should be much better in that regard
- anigbrowl 5y agoRight? I noticed a rapid and significant improvement in air quality when the lockdowns were first implemented last year. I can't say I like feral hogs as such but potentially being killed by a wild boar seems like an acceptable tradeoff.
