The average car purchased in 2023 emits higher levels of carbon dioxide (CO₂) than its 2013 equivalent. This is due to the large proportion of SUVs in the mix, which tend to be bigger and heavier.

Sorry dude, moving quick and didn’t realize you weren’t the original guy that said that stupid shit. Eternity is a terrible app. I have no issues explaining shit to people who actually didn’t know. Yes, I’m awesome at parties, especially when drunk.

Which pollutes more: a new SUV or a 10-year-old conventional vehicle?
