minus-square@NegativeInf@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglish-4•1 year agoFor anyone wondering the difference between 370 million tonnes and 37.5 billion tonnes, it’s about 37.5 billion tonnes.
minus-square@Rivalarrival@lemmy.todaylinkfedilinkEnglish13•1 year ago370 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.
minus-square@Timecircleline@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglish9•1 year ago370 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.

minus-square@Timecircleline@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglish1•1 year agoGotcha. That makes total sense.
