Sea levels are rising because of the Asthma Inhaler.

Selective quote:

Your inhaler can have a big impact on your carbon footprint. The most commonly used inhaler in the UK, Ventolin Evohaler™ has a carbon footprint of 28kg per inhaler. That’s the same carbon footprint as the tailpipe greenhouse gas emissions of driving 175miles (or from London to Sheffield) in a small car. Dry powder inhalers on the other hand typically have a carbon footprint of less than 1kg.

Let's look at the maths of this scare-mongering claim.

1/
Assume 8 preventive puffs/day as stated on the packet. There are 200 puffs per device. Thus 1 device lasts for 25 days and, according to the quoted article, has a carbon footprint of 28kg (that's an item weighing a few ounces, but I do get that this is a CO2 equivalence to the HFC liberated by the inhaler).

2/
The article cites a car driving 175 miles as having the same carbon footprint. That's the hype. Assume that an asthmatic commuter drives 80 miles per day round trip for 20 days per month. That's 1600 miles per month equating to 256kg carbon footprint.

Some of these green warriors are as bad as the worst of the woke lot.

EDIT: Dry powder inhalers do not self-propel and require a serious intake gasp from the afflicted person.
