did anyone read the link?

from the votes it seems 1/8 people don’t even read the source lolol - i thought lemmy was supposed to be better than this reddit-type behaviour…

tldr: i’m not the one making these ridiculous claims, it was a statement made (apparently in earnest) by a loopy politician.

“You would be giving off more CO2 if you are riding a bike than driving in a car,” he said. However, he said he had not “done any analysis” of the difference in CO2 from a person on a bike compared to the engine of a car" 😂
