How does this kind of shit get upvoted?

it really takes about 5 seconds of thinking about this to realize why this "analysis" is stupid - he takes an INCREDIBLY expansive view of what counts as "pollution" from food production and then takes the narrowest possible view of what counts as "pollution" from driving a ICE car.

It's frankly embarrassing that econlib would even host this kind of crap which would get a failing grade in an undergraduate econ class.
