Yeah, I think you’re right. His page even has the quote I was thinking of
Environmental historian J. R. McNeill opined that Midgley “had more adverse impact on the atmosphere than any other single organism in Earth’s history”
Fun fact about Freon: its inventor, Charles Kettering also invented leaded gasoline. I’ve seen him referred to as the single organism with the largest negative environmental impact in history.

Technology@lemmy.world•Uber is letting women avoid male drivers and riders in the USEnglish
1·2 months agoMaybe Uber should be responsible for background checks of their drivers and hold them accountable for their actions and be able to fire them for misconduct. But that might require hiring drivers as actual employees. And then Uber could issue company vehicles.
Oh wait, I’m describing taxi companies that already existed before Uber.
The fact that we allow Uber/Lyft to operate as a way to skirt regulations that were put in place to keep people safe, and then trust Uber will implement work around solutions like this is ridiculous.
Same goes to AirBnB

Does the tree kill a cyclist who had a green signal?
Traffic laws are also there so you don’t kill someone with the multi tonne steel missile you are operating with such nonchalance.
You have to have a low bar as to who is allowed to drive when driving is a requirement for participating in society.
Not everyone should be forced to drive.

Well, people like you can die a horrific death while me and my non-glowing kitty will stay away from Mount No Place Of Honor. And she can have a little ham, as a treat for keeping me safe.
You missed the part about the atomic preisthood and “inventing a body of folklore, passed on through proverbs and myths, to explain that people should flee when a cat changes color.” Such as the cute little song
Don’t change color, kitty.
Keep your color, kitty.
Stay that pretty gray.
Don’t change color, kitty.
Keep your color, kitty.
Keep sickness away.
Uhh, your door may have radiation in it.
The fact that school pickup lines exist is wild.
