Pet owners hang your heads in shame

Apparently owning a medium size dog is double as bad for climate change than driving a SUV 10k a year.

I don't have a SUV and only own a small dog, so I am not so guilty.

Quote:

According to research published in the New Scientist, the carbon footprint of a sports utility vehicle driven for 10,000 kilometres for a year is about less than half of a medium sized dog like a labrador or a Golden Retriever. At a Sydney University forum last week, experts from RSPCA, vets and environmentalists called on the public to rethink the number of pets we have, the size of these pets, and also the species. Lizards anyone?
