    Saying it’s like burning over 100 million pounds of coal does suggest that it’s a ridiculously large amount.

      I wonder What all they’re including in that count. I’m guessing it includes the fire and and gasoline burned at the event. But does it include transportation to and from the event? Potentially it even includes the co2 generated by farming the food that is there. It doesn’t say so it’s hard to really know how bad it is relative to other vacations.

        The protestors, who were ultimately dispersed by police, demanded the festival “ban private jets, single-use plastics, unnecessary propane burning, and unlimited generator use per capita,” among other requests.

        There’s some of it. Private jets and generators.

          Is the unnecessary propane burning like some fire spectacle or some weird mad max style thing or what they mean?
