Toyota car commercial: What would it be like...if the air were cleaner?

Rashaka: I'd stop wishing I still lived in Northern California every time I looked at the horizon.

Toyota car commercial: Would the grass... be greener?

Rashaka: NO YOU STUPID FUCKS IT WOULDN'T. CARBON FUCKING DIOXIDE MAKES THE GRASS GREENER. I WEEP FOR YOUR BRAINS. PHOTOSYNTHESIS IS LIKE SIXTH GRADE SCIENCE HOUR. TWELVE-YEAR-OLDS KNOW MORE THAN YOU, AND YOU BUILD CARS.

Rashaka: p.s. go call your mothers and apologize to them for being stupid on television.

I actually don't know what carbon monoxide in particular does to grass, but I did look some of this up just before posting (because I like to be sure before I rant), and according to this science journal article from September there's been an increase in plant growth due to the increase in smog [smog is my word, can't remember exactly what word they used] and resulting greenhouse effect on the ozone layer. So yeah, the grass is getting greener while we're getting cancer faster. Except we keep cutting down the rainforests, which means there's less [grass] to do the job.

I see. I was just trying to wangle a way that they might not be delusional. *g*

Speaking of gases and plants... Scientists: we're fucked.
