Dogs are Environmental Villains.

Dogs have "extensive and multifarious" environmental impacts, disturbing wildlife, polluting waterways and contributing to carbon emissions, new research has found. An Australian review of existing studies has argued that "the environmental impact of owned dogs is far greater, more insidious, and more concerning than is generally recognised".

Dumb.

Now do the carbon impact of industry and commercial development.

Dogs are an infinitesimal fraction.

Now do Military Operations and the Footprint of the world's militaries....

Cats kill birds...

Every living thing has a place in the Sun.

Military and commercial development is the problem.

Not Dogs,Cats, or Birds.

It's pretty obvious that Gracieakazed posted this thread to highlight this absurdity.

"The review's lead author, Prof Bill Bateman of Curtin University, said the research did not intend to be "censorious" but aimed to raise awareness of the environmental impacts of man's best friend, with whom humans' domestic relationship dates back several millennia."

Imagine truly believing your lifestyle choices have no impact on the world around you!
