I don't really like going outside that much because of all the fucking vehicles filling the air with carcinogens.
Then there's the excessive UV because the ozone layer was ruined.
And the noise all the vehicles make.
Yeah, I'm good. I'll just enjoy the world from my window and computer thank you wery much.
Unless you live in Australia the ozone layer is not a problem. If you do live in Australia, my condolences.
Yeah, that one's kinda the proof we can all work together to combat an environmental issue and get results
Shame we seem to be not doing that so much these days
we have sunscreen now, also no one says you have to stand under direct sunlight the whole time 😁
I live at higher elevation, and the UV is literally “extreme” (13-14 on the whatever-it-is scale) any time it is remotely sunny. Going outside is still very enjoyable any time. Dude probably lives somewhere with half the UV and is worried about the sun as if he is a vampire
Some people are just illogical. If your only conception of going outside is standing in full sun on the street and huffing the exhaust pipes of passing cars then thats more of a problem with lack of imagination. Parks exist, shade exists, going outside of town exists… literally endless ways to avoid all of these impossible challenges
It's a shame reading comments like this. The harms that you mention are absolutely miniscule compared to the negative effects of staying inside every day.
I'd love to live in whatever world you're in, but it doesn't exist. It's actually a shame so many people are so condescending about their delusions.
Nothing stops you from going live deep in the forest away from all of those things.
I can never tell if these kind of comments are just meant to be subtle self mockery, or that your just really that unaware of yourself.
I wouldn't be so sure that your living space isn't filled with carcinogens, too. The air inside is coming somewhere, and furniture, carpets etc. often gas out harmful substances.
my carpet is gassy?
Yeah, it farts formaldehyde
Depends on what it's made of. If it's like pure, unadultered cotton or wool it's probably inert, but the kinds of carpet that are supposed to cover a room wall-to-wall and have a sort of rubbery bottom tend to be rather unhealthy.
I have an air filter with active carbon.
*that was reviewed on house fresh.
IDK why people are downvoting this so much ... I think it's a good idea and I should probably get one, and a sensor to check it.
It's something that everyone should have imo. Especially with increased risk of forest fires. I have the Shark HP102 which has built in sensors, most of them do I think. Ofc it's always good to cross reference. :3
Go to a better place?
Which planet would you recommend?
