To make this article more valid, how about compare the carbon footprint of people in general? You know, make fewer babies.


Oh wait, discouraging reproduction is a sin because we are all entitled to have children.

The first thing that came to my mind was "who the **** cares...?" Humans are like this unfortunately, and that include all of us.

That makes the argument ironic, not dumb.

If, in fact, dogs do have a larger carbon footprint than SUVs, then the argument is smart, not dumb.

I find this all funny, but at the same time I also have a "DGAF" attitude towards it. As long as we have producers and consumers (whether they're people or not) with unlimited wants and needs, we're going to be giving off -insert random harmful thing to the earth that we keep managing to come up with every so often-.

That's just how it is.
