This one is just so superbly ironic that it has to be shared. All of these radical left, virtue signalling, green zealots were thrilled during the lockdowns because people were forced to stay at home and it took all those evil, fossil fuel guzzling cars off the road.
So what actually happened during that time? Effective green house gas emissions went UP! Yes. Up. Why you ask? Well, it turns out that those evil fossil fuel burning engines actually (via the production of NO/NO2/NO3 and CO) lead to additional hydroxyl ions in the atmosphere. Those hydroxyl radicals in turn reduce methane concentrations. And since methane is a significantly more potent green house gas than CO2, the net effect is an increase in the greenhouse effect when people stop driving fossil fuel burning cars.
Bet you won't see this reported on the fake news.
I had a similar shower thought:
Of course, I don't agree with this, but it is logical, if one believes the CO2 causes global warming BS.
How. Dare. You!
LOVE it - thanks!
