    i’ll be honest the amount of energy it took to produce, ship, and then sell that shaving cream to you dwarfs the cost of the power for a hairdryer that’s only on a few seconds. if you’re wanting to be pendantic about it that is overall more harmful to the climate.

    not in a rude way i’m just sick of these BP-personal-climate-calculator-core takes about environmentalism. just because you prostrate yourself doesn’t mean it’s actually doing anything to help. live your life. we’re all gonna die within a couple centuries if we don’t overthrow oligarchy, tho.

      Interesting experience to be shamed as an environmental extremist for this take.

      The idea is to shave whatever and then use a tiny bit of that shaving cream on your mirror, since you will not be able to fully use 100% of the batch and just wash it down the drain anyway.

      That makes the additional cost = 0.
