Reminds me of an argument on the radio a few years ago. It went
something like this:
Representative of some green organisation: "We are proud that we have
managed to reduce the use of gas per vehicle in California by 10% over
the last year."
Representative of the SUV owners organisation of California: "Yeah,
but we had 20% more cars registered in the same time, so all that
silly gas saving has gained us nothing. In the contrary, we are now
using even more gas."
