You’re conflating greenhouse gas emissions with particulate pollution. Particulates damage lungs and drop temperatures, but fall out of the atmosphere within a few weeks of emission into the troposphere.

CO2 accumulates, and raises temperatures.

The stats linked above are for the sulfate emissions.

What you’re doing is trying to discourage action, and that’s not ok here.

I mean in defense of the other person. It sounds more like the argument is trying to encourage a bigger action. Like don’t just do your part, vote/participate for what actually changes things in a larger scale.
