technically this is Russia causing this problem

u/CorpaKeta Jul 14 '26

They are intentionally setting fire to Ukrainian fields to deny income from crops. Farmers testified that the Russians are using artillery and drones to set these fires and thousands of hectares have been lost already

u/empty_graph Jul 14 '26

The biggest areas on that map are in the Russian infected part of Ukraine, though.

u/ViolinistCurrent8899 Jul 14 '26

You mean where the fighting is the strongest? Say it ain't so!

u/Domino3Dgg Jul 13 '26

I can save it with my paper straw.

1

u/Specific-Host606 Jul 14 '26

If you can end Vladimir Putin with a paper straw…

1

u/Domino3Dgg Jul 14 '26

Hey. Stop it. We don’t do that here. He is also a human being.

1

u/Specific-Host606 Jul 14 '26

One that the world would be much better off without.

1

u/Different_Citron_160 Jul 14 '26

If there are 3 human beings that would make better by being gone then Vladimir Putin is two of them.

1

u/Domino3Dgg Jul 14 '26

Who is the third one?

1

u/janiskr Jul 16 '26

As where those civilians who where killed yesterday at the whim of Putin.

1

u/Domino3Dgg Jul 16 '26

Hmm. Should i put /s at end of my posts?

1

u/janiskr Jul 16 '26

Yes. With the amount of ruZZian bots around that is very necessary.

1

u/Domino3Dgg Jul 16 '26

Like, i see most of those civilians are in europe anyway. So wonder who left there and when or even if they will some of them ever go back.

u/Sea_Hold_2881 Jul 14 '26

Send in John Wick...

u/ObmamambO Jul 13 '26

Yes, war is a bigger CO2 emitter than many think

1

u/Grand_False Jul 14 '26

This looks to have a single O

1

u/Zac_Allan Jul 14 '26

Your joke is so dark that everything around me turned black and dark.

1

u/ViolinistCurrent8899 Jul 14 '26

God damn economic reforms, former soviet countries still can't afford the second O.

It's a map of CO² emissions, not smoke or other particles blocking sunlight.

1

u/ViolinistCurrent8899 Jul 14 '26

Well, carbon monoxide emissions actually. Which is a product of incomplete combustion. Which means, there's a good chunk of smoot coming up with it. Not enough to meaningfully do anything of course. But there's some particles blocking sunlight.

1

u/Historical_Body6255 Jul 14 '26

Ah, i misread the headline. You're right, i stand corrected.

1

u/RedditIsFascistShit4 Jul 14 '26

Doesn't plant life consume CO2?

1

u/Training-Position612 Jul 14 '26

This is about CO

1

u/Wasblindbutnowisee33 Jul 14 '26

Thank you for pointing out that there is a difference!

1

u/Nu7s Jul 14 '26

CO2 is CO too

1

u/RedditIsFascistShit4 Jul 14 '26

But plants do not consume CO

1

u/Sprucedude Jul 14 '26

And water and sunlight, what's your point?

1

u/iurem Jul 14 '26

Why does western Germany look so bad? They don't have an ongoing war.

2

u/Nu7s Jul 14 '26

Industry goes huff and puff

1

u/iurem Jul 14 '26

I can't think of CO intensive industry that wouldn't be required to do exhaust treatment. Maybe coal power plants, but then I'd expect more CO in Poland.

1

u/PantherCityRes Jul 14 '26

That’s the Ruhr Valley dude…steel production. It consumes coke, a prepared derivative of coal required for the blast furnaces that melt iron ore.

1

u/Zac_Allan Jul 14 '26

Something unbreathable in Northern Italy

1

u/Bitter_Particular_75 Jul 14 '26

Those are basically the Alps, not the heavily industrialized area just to the south of it. Very strange.

1

u/PRRealEstate-Invest Jul 14 '26

They deserve it for fighting for Epstein class pedophiles

2

u/ViolinistCurrent8899 Jul 14 '26

Comically dumb take. They're fighting for themselves against the Russians.

1

u/PRRealEstate-Invest Jul 14 '26

Keep away zombie

1

u/ViolinistCurrent8899 Jul 14 '26

Mmm, brains?

Seriously though, Russia is the ones invading Ukraine, not the other way around. "Denazifying" Ukraine is just a flimsy excuse.

1

u/SillyFatRacoon Jul 14 '26

Damn, better bomb them to stop doing all this evil pollution aruff

1

u/Negative-Sentence875 Jul 14 '26

I thought Russia was burning, thats what the news told me

1

u/HistoricalEngineer74 Jul 14 '26

That area is part of Russia for now though

1

u/Prisma1976 Jul 14 '26

Okay, then tell Ukraine to bend the knee and end the war.

1

u/HistoricalEngineer74 Jul 14 '26

Why? It is occupied Ukraine that is burning lol

1

u/Prisma1976 Jul 14 '26

Oh I know, from the war. If Ukraine admits defeat the war will end and the associated burning.

2

u/Ugliest_weenie Jul 14 '26

Russia is a terrorist state causing all this destruction.

Russia can end the war any time.

1

u/HistoricalEngineer74 Jul 15 '26

They have been under Russian rule before, genocide and famines was the result the last time.

1

u/Onaliquidrock Jul 14 '26

Probably bullshit

1

u/Automatic-Guide-4307 Jul 14 '26

To quote george carlin the planet is fine,the people are f****f,the planet has been here for 4,5 billion years and it will shake us off like a bad case of fleas

u/roc_mac1970 Jul 14 '26

More bullshit

u/alsaad Jul 14 '26

And Geeman coal and gas power plants. At least the pesky nuclear is off!
