And this just after another researcher had found a way to combine the global-warming and obesity-crisis scares:
Walking does more than driving to cause global warming, a leading environmentalist has calculated.
Food production is now so energy-intensive that more carbon is emitted providing a person with enough calories to walk to the shops than a car would emit over the same distance. The climate could benefit if people avoided exercise, ate less and became couch potatoes.
Of course, the aim of the research is to do something about this highly efficient food production in the Evil West, which would be accomplished by shocking people into thinking that no matter what they do, walk or drive, they’re still harming the planet and endangering the children twelve generations hence because they haven’t done something about our food production.
