Bottom line we need to get off fossil fuels as fast as we can.
Why?
you be the winner. climate change cycles have been reoccurring for millions of years. I am in no hurry. Very satisfied and not worrying as I enjoy my gasser truck. Cheers to 300 million other gassers.

Saw a comparison to Wright brothers plane, to walking in the moon. Took 66 years.
We have a few more years/decades for EV or hydrogen power to be truly usable etc like ICE rigs. I'm positive things will get there. When, not if.
The Wright Brothers had pencils and rulers. We have much more advanced technology that can do the design, analysis and calculations much more quickly.
Had the Wrights had current computer technology at their disposal, they could have made their first flight from Kitty Hawk to LaGuardia in a Boeing 707 in a week, instead of taking years to figure out how to make their contraption fly 120 feet.
In other words it should not take us nearly 66 years to perfect an alternative. We can make advancements much more quickly now.

Animals don't defecate where they eat. We are, in a sense, doing just that.

I need to point out that rabbits do poo where they eat. In fact they must eat their own poo, while living in nature. Running it through twice is part of their natural digestive process.
rabbits eat their own poo
But enough biology, back to moving our RVs down the road.

Why? ![[emoticon]](http://www.coastresorts.com/sharedcontent/cfb/images/awink.gif "awink") I know it's a joke but apparently somewhere between 7% and 14% of US adults are still climate change deniers. Scary isn't it? Would that be the same 7% to 14% who didn’t believe that Covid would kill 10 times more people than the flu? Well guess what?

Give the 7% a Darwin award. Unfortunately I have to live and put up with this, just as I have to live with 8 billion other humans.

Very bad analogy.
Ivermectin was developed to deal with the issues caused by livestock grazing and defecating in the same place.
