Why should it be legal? It spews massive amounts of chemicals and harmful pollution into the atmosphere.

To the order of ~600g of SO2 and ~90 tonnes of CO2 over the average vehicle's lifespan.

It's weird how, as mentioned in other parts of this thread, nobody gives two figs[1] about the atmospheric geoengineering we're all doing with our cars and our natural gas power plants. The Paris accord came and went and we are solidly on the worst-case do-nothing track.

[1] We are, at most, taking steps to consider thinking about taking steps fifteen years from now.



> Why should it be legal?

Good but irrelevant question. My point still stands: one is legalized, the other is not.
