Climate scientists: It would be prudent to transition our energy systems from carbon-emitting fossil fuels to cleaner non-GHG emitting energy sources as quickly as possible.
AP Ragebait: Have you considered replacing your dog with 100 rabbits?

[sigh] AP and Reuters have been crap for a while, which is sad. I remember them being the best sources of, well, basic news. Never breaking a major investigative story, but doing the beat day after day.
Now they're tools of the right like everything else, pretending not to be.

My dog could probably eat 100 rabbits. Problem solved.

I would have a dog as a pet everyday over a 100 bunnys. Dogs give you undevoted love and are great listners to my problems. It's not you're place to ask somebody to consider replacing a dog because you're a vegan or vegetarion. I'm a huge meat eater and not a bit ashamed of it, nor should anyone be.

Domestic dogs are omnivores. The evolved along side humans and ate scraps. They can digest carbs. They are not carnivores. Now, shutter carbon emitting operations like coal mines and oil/gas, the real contributors.
-
The carbon footprint of humans doesnโt exist, much less for dogs. That said, going vegan is the only option for slowing climate change and my family is- including my dogs! Dogs thrive on vegan food. Not cats. Cats are true carnivores and would get sick on a vegan diet.

as someone who had a farmer grandfather who owned about five, which quickly became twenty, all of which pooped buckets of pellets each day, requiring us to cart it away in wheelbarrows -- I would advise caution

Apparently CALEIGH WELLS couldnโt think of any of the million other higher priority climate change issues to discuss.
We all have deadlines but donโt sacrifice your journalistic integrity along the way.

Ah yes, the Doggos, not the oil companies, not the coal plants, not the forever plastics. Silly poor person, that's rich people's stuff, they paid to keep it, you didn't. Now go take Old Yeller out there and Nancy Mace them right now.

Then we need to euthanize 75 % of the people.
-
Billionaire media is out of touch once again. Iโm shocked! Shocked, I say! I do declare!
-
The amount of electricity wasted for news corporations to create and distribute this junk, negates any carbon footprint saving for this pet switching.
-
Dogs can change to a vegetarian diet, only cats are carnivores and cant

-
Oh my god..you actually believe this... hahaha

AP cannot be trusted to tell facts about anything. Yet THAT is one of the two international sources ALL media use. So if they choose to promote terrorist propaganda, the main media will also. Want to deny that WE are the biggest problem for life on the planet? Go to AP
-
Exactly the same mindset that told people to take shorter showers because the AI datacenters need all the water. Your DOG is causing the climate change, it couldn't possibly be the corrupt industrial oligarchy.
-
No my daughter raised rabbits and the only thing good about them is the super poo for the garden
-
Fuck off FORTUNE, and take your FORTUNE with you.
We all know what the prime mover is
-
fuck this bullshit
-
Carbon footprintist ideas of corporatism and it's consequences have been a disaster for the human race...
-
Fuck this stupid-ass timeline. Jfc.
-
If all of the carnivores are gone, the bunnies will be out of control. Lol.
-
That AP headline is the journalistic equivalent of weeks-worth of belches from a beef cattle feedlot.
-
We could just transition dogs to a vegetarian diet that is more climate friendly. Dogs are omnivores like we are.
-
This type of assessment galls me; passing blame for minuscule contributions to consumers when inefficiencies in industrial processes are much larger greenhouse gas sources.
-
lmao what a shitpost.
Btw rabbits eat power cords and charging cables, so they're a substantial GHG contributor if you're not good at those kinds of repairs
-
I think Australia might have some thoughts on the matter. Just saying.
-
Lord save me... I have a Pet Cow...
-
Dogs dont emit nearly as much as humans...I'd replace those with bunnies.
-
See, stuff like this is half the reason that I miss print media. I can't read this drek in Fortune, then jump up in the air, and hurl it into a trash bin like I'm playing IRL NBA Jam.
-
Gaslighting.
Know your enemy.
-
There are so many things wrong with this that I canโt even find somewhere to start
-
Pff, Iโm sure there are 100 rabbits living on my block. My kingdom for a fox. One urban fox!
-
I mean dogs are actually not carnivores. Dogs are omnivores.
While in order to have healthy vegan dog food, we did have to look around, my dog is 14 and been vegan his whole life, and vets often ask how I keep him so healthy.
Dogs can be vegan.
Cats are carnivores though.
-
Dogs can be healthy on a vegan diet though. Cats need meat to be healthy, dogs not so much
-
Don't blame my Boy!
-
Also dogs are not carnivores. Maybe replace their dog food with a vegetarian one instead of "replacing" your dog with 100 rabbits!? Side benefit - vegetarian dogs poop is nowhere near as stinky.
