"But.... How informed does your decision really need to be, here?"
Does no one else see the principle? Suppose I was trying to sell you a bunch of mortgages that I own. Suppose I inflated the potential value in order to get you to buy them?
There is little difference between 200,000 and 800,000 cars. Either data point indicates the need to save energy.
"In short, I have a hard time seeing what you're so worked up about here."
In short, I resent being lied to by someone selling their belief system. You can tell me it's just a little lie, and it's OK because it's for a good cause. That doesn't make it the truth. It makes me wonder what else, in the greens' platform, is being stretched. If they don't mind stretching the truth, maybe they don't mind completely fabricating stuff. If the truth isn't good enough to support your position, then maybe you should re-think your position.
