@andrewmattox1233 city dwelling has far less environmental impact by basically every metric. Fuck off and do some research.

@andrewmattox1233 hey dumbass, more people in cities means more land is left wild which results in an even better carbon footprint than stretching infrastructure out to everyone so that they can personally own the land trying to keep up with their carbon output. If you can't be assed to do some basic research and just want to keep a myopic perspective so you can feel superior, you don't deserve any respect in a discussion on the topic you're willfully ignorant on. Ps: suburban sprawl isn't necessary or integral to cities

@Sean Murray wow, so many uninformed idiots insulting you when they don't understand that not all species are equally valuable to the biosphere. Guess what kids? The entire desert ecosystem could disappear and the rest of biosphere wouldn't even notice as the connections are small, few, and weak. If letting them all go extinct could save just one random non-desert species, that's a damn good trade.

The entire idea of market economies is based on people paying for the costs of production for the things you buy. If those costs are forced onto an unconsenting 3rd party, the entire foundation of the system is broken and the whole thing eats itself. If you oppose carbon taxes being levied to pay for clean up and you're not a socalist, you're a hypocrite because you only support markets when they're to your personal benefit.
