@W_Lucht my my my, if it isn't the consequences of our own actions, shocking.

@pelle this seems a bit reductionist, don't you think? Like, all this carbon from fuel is from plant-based sources buried underground millions of years ago...

1/4 of our greenhouse gas emissions are from food production, and a #vegan diet cuts that with 3/4. it's the easiest and most impactful action you can take.

@W_Lucht How about we don't frame this as *Europe* and *consumerism* issue? Looking at data it is neither. https://ourworldindata.org/grapher/annual-co-emissions-by-region

@bmgnrs
I screenshotted it from the "meteoblue" weather app.

@RevRhizicNatterjacks
i agree: ban cars, bikes for everyone.
this is also true: if you drive car, you're either #climatedenier or #hypocrite.i'm a bicycle mechanic, who has never had a driving license, and who has been in prison for protesting the fossil fuels, so i'm not providing cover for that industry.
however, i doubt that any #vegan would argue against #veganism, so now i'm worried you only brought up fossil fuels only to deflect and distract from you eating animals. am i wrong?
