Only Mol compares (constantly) his Passat’s “greeness” with our BM
No no no! I most definitely do not! I’ve not mentioned my car at all on this thread.
The reason I mention CO2 so often is because it’s important, and people need to remember that.
It has absolutely nothing to do with gaining moral high ground for myself compared to others. This is EXACTLY what I am talking about when I call you uber-competitive, Mat. You don’t seem capable of considering any issue in terms other than people being better or worse in some area than you or your personal situation.
It makes no difference to this thread what car I drive. My Passat is not very green – why the hell did you go and look up the stats? What’s that got to do with the thread? My footprint is not small, I know that – I’m sure it’s larger than yours but that’s absolutely utterly categorically NOT the issue. Everyone needs to reduce CO2 – even if you are already a low emitter, you need to be lower. Everyone does. If you or I compete to be the lowest emitter, and one of us wins, the atmosphere isn’t going to give a flying sh*t as long as we are both as low as we can be.
It’s not about me vs you. Seriously – think about this.
Re the car – some people like fast cars, some people like big high up ones. It’s a matter of taste. So both are equally stupid, or equally valid, depending on your point of view.
