Yes, obviously AI is emitting way too much. It shouldn’t even be producing 0.2% of global emissions, let alone 2%. My main grievance is that no one ever talks about improving industrial and agricultural processes even though they produce around 29% of emissions and 20% of emissions respectively.
also, the co2 equivalent of 1kg of tofu vs 1kg of beef is approx. 16 fold because of ruminants farting methane. BTW, this means that producing 1kg of cheese produces more co2 equivalent than 1kg chicken, eggs or even pork
Because that farted methane is from synthetic fertilizers produced with fossil methane in the first place.
