The cross posting from tumblr begins now.
The infographic over there has a whole bunch more pages but I don't feel like posting all of them, here's the link if you want to look at it in full. https://www.tumblr.com/bellybuttonblue2/726484348216459264
I am resigned to a future on fire.
One of my dearest friends responded to this with "yeah but we should all do our best to still minimize our footprint" and I can't square my opinion of them as a rational person with this statement.
