It's a wash, since most of us use AC at some point. You work to make things better FROM the context you are in. As for standards, that's what I was getting at. Is freon 3k+ times more damaging to Man's climate (I way this because Earth doesn't care what equilibrium it's at) when you factor in its dramatically shorter persistence and considerably smaller emission?

"Dramatically shorter persistence" - my earlier link shows that freon's persistence can easily be over 500 years.
Now if futurecurrent's really cared about global warming then he wouldn't be peddling this destructive gas. He is a merely a feeble arm chair "climate change" warrior that doesn't walk the talk.
We all care about air pollution, but society is set up for the use of vehicles, if not your own then publicly owned. Like I say, you work from where you are.
At least I support the environment by reducing air pollution -- I do not own a car and use public transportation. I doubt very much that futurecurrents walks his talk by not owning an auto.
Here's some more wisdom in the same vein:
Donald Trump: "I don't think I'm that outspoken to be honest with you - I think I've been very nice; I don't think so - look, I went to Ivy League schools. I'm just tired of non-support - and I don't really want support."

Fair enough, but you're creating some kind of binary truth here. If FC does not quit his job in HVAC, then he's doing nothing to support the environment.
How do you get by without a car in Cary? The town is a collection of strip malls and subdivisions. Public transit is minimal.
I am the road every week. I am rarely in Cary. If I need a car when home I borrow one or get an Uber.
This is because futurecurrents is very much into binary. Either someone is an "enlightened" liberal climate change advocate or an evil rightie denier in futurecurrents world - there is no middle ground.
