Whether you consume it to drive your cars, heat your home or transport goods, the consumption is due to the lifestyle you choose. In terms of vehicular use, Canada is still in the top 10-20% polluters per capita in the world. Rest of the world, especially Europe, Asia, Africa and South America, are not so drive-happy like we are. Europe has smaller distances to deal with. Asia is incredibly vehicle happy. South America too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Per capita is the only valid metric of usage when comparing nations of 20-30 million people with nations of 1.5 billion people. Otherwise, China is richer than Canada and you have no basis of challenging it either, since China's gross GDP is many times that of Canada's. you are the only one on here spouting superiority. In terms of oil use, per capita means squat. What matters to the environment is total output of carbon. How much does China use, in total? more than anyone. Kind of blows your arrogance out of the water. Edited May 1, 2019 by Jimmy McGill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you think Germany is 2x less dirty per capita just because its 'smaller' ? Asia and South America are incredibly vehicle happy for stuff like commuting. Not for disposable fun activities like road trips for 500 kms and such. Like I said, those who pollute the worst, have ZERO leg to stand on when it comes to sermonizing about pollution.

It doesn't change the fact that Canadians are amongst the top 1% worst polluters individually, per person, on the planet and the average Canuck is far dirtier with oil than practically 99% of the planet. So Canadians talking against oil is as valid as the Soviets talking about human rights. Laughable, hypocritical comedy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Convenient for the nation that fits in two cities of China with ease to say. Per capita carbon footprint makes Canadians one of the worst offenders INDIVIDUALLY. We have no leg to stand on, champ as we are amongst the worst offenders in the world by a fair margin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canadians & Vancouverites in general are hypocritical when it comes to global warming. Tough to take the proclamations of those seriously who are amongst the worst offenders on the planet.

If you spent 8 hours a day entering useless data in a spreadsheet / excel worksheet like Canuckistani does ... you would be pretty p.ed off as well.

Suffice to say I am not middle eastern, so wherever I come from, its a far less polluting land than Canada is, when it comes to GHG and oil usage.
