Online porn videos produce as much CO2 as a small country

I hope to hell you weren't imagining we'd all swear off porn after reading this because of our environmental sensibilities. Sheesh!

Not at all! But perhaps we should all plant a tree each time we enjoy a hand-shandy; give a new meaning to "got wood".

If you finish before the end of the clip, or just skim the highlights, would you still owe the world a whole tree? Or maybe you could get away with just throwing an apple into a vacant lot, and hoping for the best.

What? What about data centers powered by solar or any other renewable?
What about people that have solar on their homes?

What a dumb blanket statement that content = co2. It's like saying EV vehicles have a huge CO2 footprint because they use a lot of power to charge.

Also that infrastructure is going to be powered on and using power whether you watch porn or not *sigh*

The CO2 is not coming from power consumption, it's from all the heavy breathing.

The answer is simple - more plants in the computer room.

Ohhhhh .... and here I thought it was all that excitement, heavy breathing, and .... you know .....

Lol then having sex is even more dangerous to environment than watching porn.
