That is only true if you prefer money over the environmental damage you do.

The minuscule amount of pollution that my fuel-efficient car produces is completely insignificant in the grand scale of planet Earth. So yes I do prefer having money to live on than worrying about that.

You can guilt trip me about my car after you succeed in getting millionaires to ground their private jets and when mega-corporations stop massively polluting everything around the world.

Sure, and throwing a can out of the window on a highway is also insignificant >.>

You have the exact same mentality as those millionaires you complain about.
