Online porn is damaging the environment.

    I was reading in the paper this morning that streaming online porn produces as much CO2 as the whole of Belgium. Researchers found that all online videos emit 300 tonnes of carbon each year, and a third of this comes from videos streamed on ‘one handed websites’.

    Now I’d imagine that there are some real heavy users of such material in AH. Real experts in the art of onanism. As part of the green agenda is anyone willing to moderate, or indeed cease, their consumption of such material?

    Not to mention all that friction.

    Nope

    Are you looking for some masterdebaters to discuss this with?

    It's no use us stopping if the Chinese are still at it.

    A Google search is equivalent to boiling a kettle. So how bad for the environment is your post saying something else is bad for the environment?

    We should just ban the Internet and then the environment will be fine.

    I'm seeing an obvious solution.

    Only solution is to make Belgium smaller.

    But if you could harness the friction,its clean energy
    Plus the tissues are recyclable...

    Belgium is the cockpit of Europe.

    How amazing is Belgium only emitting less than 100 tonnes of carbon dioxide? That is less than a small housing estate here

    300 million tonnes. My bad.

    300 million tonnes. My bad.
    oh I though belgium had solved global warming and were just sitting there waiting for someone to notice. This is much less interesting.

    Just short of the tonnage of scutter you've deposited here.

    The Chinese like to wave little red books around rather than their willy's.

    Perhaps some kind of jizz deposit system that could be used to power pornhub?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,646 ✭✭✭Mehaffey1


    A sticky issue of sticky tissues this is

    Women should contribute to the solution as well.

    How does streaming online porn emit more than streaming any other kind of video?

    additional testicular emissions


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,167 ✭✭✭Pauliedragon


    Fanny farts during coitus must be bad too for emissions. Has a study ever been done to measure the effects of those? Maybe we need a fanny fart tax. 50c per release of said emissions sounds fair.

    Get one of those thingymayokeys that creates electricity with movement, attach to your wrist, create energy at the same time. Pretty sure I could power my local village alone.

    Or users of the site have to offset their carbon credits before they start a session of trying to pull the flute off themselves.
