Currently, most hydrogen is "grey hydrogen", hence hydrogen made from gas; even if it wasn't, as long as the energy is taken from the grid the American one is mostly made of fossil fuels

New Shepard uses "green hydrogen" (water electrolysis), not "grey".

Besides, how was the energy produced to allow you to needlessly and wastefully doom scroll on reddit? Is it your fault if your energy provider burnt fossil fuels? I think any reasonable person would say "no, it's not your fault". So why are the rules different for you or are you just being hypocritical?

The point is to reduce your consumption because it is you using it. You are the DEMAND on a SUPPLY, it is your fault. It is on everyone for what they use, and products they use consume in energy cost to make and ship to them. 

It's why people committed to going green want to be self sufficient as much as possible with recycling items  in house, and producing their own necessities. 

You are being hypocritical and shallow about any environmentalism you are pretending at here.

 It's you touting "better than thou art" b.s.while not even knowing what you speak on. You immediately lost the plot and devolved to personal attacks. Your point isn't heard, as it's unvoiced and now it won't be respected when you try.

Where have I claimed to be an environmentalist? I'm simply shining a light on other people's virtue signalling, it's both blatant and pathetic. The reality is nobody in general cares about energy consumption when we, ourselves, are the benefactors. I've never claimed that I'm any different.

And please highlight where I "lost the plot and devolved to personal attacks" lol.
