I don’t own an SUV or a dog, but I would love a dog if I had a dog-walker for the Winter months… I was surprised to learn that a dog could be just as bad an SUV according to some new research. Either way, SUVs still suck.
New Scientist took a look at the relative carbon impact of owning a dog (or cat, or hamster) and owning an SUV like a Toyota Land Cruiser. The results, plotted in the chart above, may surprise you. Take a look at the original article to see if you agree with the methodology, or if you can even put an environmental price on your furkid.
