This is horrible. This feels like the public isn’t interested in a topic as much like a group is expecting them to be, so the group fakes interest. It reads like “for your own good”. I predict that this will have zero impact on greenhouse gas emissions.



It will actually increase emissions, since (a) advertising networks are extremely adept at detecting click fraud and will now downweight showing ads on pages about climate change and (b) botnets consume a ton of energy, and therefore release more greenhouse gases.
