      I’ll have to check my notes, but I think there’s probably several good reasons to stop doing this shit

      For anyone wondering the difference between 370 million tonnes and 37.5 billion tonnes, it’s about 37.5 billion tonnes.

        370 million is 0.37 billion, so the difference is about 37.13 billion.

        370 million tons of carbon from a single source is a considerable amount.

        370 million is just under 1% of 37.5 billion. It’s obviously far from the majority but I can see it being something that should be addressed.

          Oh, agreed. I just think there are better metrics we can point at other than carbon release for why bottom trawling is a terrible thing for the environment.
