What's their motivation for this? (I see something similar and I don't understand. I have explained it for myself by Hanlon's razor.)
- p_l 5y agoA lot of the "personal carbon footprint" was driven by oil industry marketing campaigns in order to shift blame. Then add in existing degrowth movements.

- tim333 5y agoIt has a lot in common with religion where you do penance for your original sin and lead a simple life of contemplating God in some monastery. Hence the faithfull can demonstrate their goodness but flying to some enviro conference even if the private jet burns a bit of gas getting there.
