It isn’t absurd in the sense that it’s untrue. It is factual that using
electricity generated by carbon emitting processes affects climate change, but
to factor every keystroke I’m making right this instant is a thought exercise
warranting ridicule. We can cite the other extreme and condemn Bitcoin
blockchain maintenance as an energy travesty.

To be clear, this is absurd. I'm posting so that the community can enjoy.

Thank you for this. Was so absurd it was laughable.

One of my favorite videos on how they like to use climate change to be the
'explain everything' theory.
