Holy misinformation.

It did work

When you correct for lockdown, it certainly did not work. Feel free to provide references.

This doesn't show the effect of the intervention. It's not enough to show that Canada has merely flattened out. It's disappointing and it "didn't work" in the sense that we still need to reduce emissions a lot, but you would have to show what the effects would have been expected without the intervention.

The full-size pickup graph especially seems like a distraction. So let me raise mine. Animal ag produces more emissions than all categories of transportation combined, and it has zero benefit. We all need transportation and shipping, but each of us could reduce our animal ag consumption to essentially nothing overnight. And yet, it's all about cars? I'm the most fuck cars guy around, but that's stupid.
