    The idea of a personal “Carbon Footprint” was spread as an idea by BP in order to make people believe individual action/responsibility was more important than systemic change.

    It worked really well.

        It says rail is the largest polluter by a huge margin… That’s hard to take. Whoever made that graph is an idiot, it’s hard to read and it poorly laid out.
