America is not a Planet

Enough joking around, is the climate overall hurt or helped when the population of the USA goes up?

Immigrants undoubtedly bring down the per capita footprint of the USA as they bring their customs and miserly ways. Now, if the premise is "if the population goes up" and is not just at replacement levels, then no, having more people anywhere never brings it down, especially as upward mobility increases one's footprint.

Why are you being purposely obtuse? There is no need to guess about what the premise is, I gave it to you when I asked "is the climate overall hurt or helped when the population of the USA goes up?"

Great, show me some research to back up that statement. You must have arrived at this opinion some how? I would also be concerned with the environmental impact of the 2nd generation of these immigrant families. How long does this grace period of low carbon emissions last? Does it end after Jose has 5 children and buys a gas guzzler truck?

All things remaining equal, carbon footprint goes up with population growth, this is high school level conservation of energy bookstuff. And I was perfectly clear about what I said.

I'm not here to entertain you every fucking zigzag down some rabbit hole, do your own research or stick to a topic.
 
Not even Black America is getting excited about the Democrats and their lame ideas to solve climate change. That is okay, they already know you sold them out for illegal immigrants. Kamala Harris is a dud. Better ditch her now.

Yes, talking about immigrants obtaining vehicles which in turn causes increased carbon emissions is going down a rabbit hole. It is time for this conversation to end, go plan your world wide railway with Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and please, never set foot on an airplane again.
