Chris L argues that food production is also a huge and modern industry, as is production of basic clothing and production of many other things. Chris L also feels that it is impossible and stupid to ever aim for zero pollution, as this will just never happen. It is about reducing pollution wherever possible. Chris L cannot see how using cars rather than bikes will achieve this.
Chris L generally poses two questions when he sees these sort of statistics and articles, those being "who says" and "so what". So far, the only place Chris L has seen these statistics is on this guy's website, and he feels the question must be asked:
"who the f*ck is Arek anyway?"
