Let’s see: 30*3 = 90

We have room for 3 more categories, and then some!

They are all small, but they still make up 100%

That is not how percentages of an existing number work. C'mon man.

I have 100 sandwiches. 3% of them contain mayo. If I break that total up into all manner of groups 3% of them still contain mayo.

Atmospheric carbon is measurable and we know how much of that number is released by various causes. Adding other causes will not change these percentages - the added causes will just be smaller fractions of percentages that exist.

I had to re-read it a few times, but I think they are trying to say if the other 97% is divided into 30 categories they will all be about 3% also. The implication being that every percent counts.

That doesn't make any sense either because the complaint is that rich people flying is a big contributor to our carbon releases, and it is not

These are the same geniuses who point to fossil fuels companies as the reason there is global warming, as if they aren't selling that fuel to others, so idk what I expected, honestly.
