My point is about the intent of the article, why it was commissioned in the first place, and why it was published despite their actual conclusion being "no idea, therefore no story".

The intent is eco-guilt.

Find something that people enjoy, and see if we can make them feel bad about it.

No actual facts to back that up? Never mind. Just list the usual REEEE about 173% of the world's rainforests being cut down every minute, and say "Well, you can't be sure that you're not contributing, can you?"

It's mean and its spiteful and it's intended to make people feel bad, for no reason other than to make them feel bad.

Fair enough.

But, if I were to select news articles that are mean and spiteful, I think I'd choose from the Daily Mail first, or something similar. Lots more much, much more socially damaging stuff out there in the news world, methinks!

How much money would be extorted out of you by goons (hired goons) to pay for the Heil writing said article?

Not sure what you mean. Something about journalists just writing whatever they're paid to write?

"You must at least know that CO2 in greenhouses is vastly different matter than CO2 in a planet's atmosphere"

What's the difference between CO2 in one place and CO2 somewhere else?

There might be a bad joke in there but sadly, I cannot figure it out. Crying or Very sad

Abusive post rating for mpd?

"Use this reason when a poster uses extremely bad / racist language in an attack on another user, or gets way too personal in an argument."
