And nuclear weapons are more destructive than my 16 year old. So that's all good then.

Sorry, what point were you trying to make?

If you were a producer of nuclear weapons and were warning people of the destructiveness dangers of having 16 year olds, I'd find it absurd. Wouldn't you?

Essentially, it's hypocritical to talk about environmental dangers on one activity when performing a much more environmentally destructive activity.
