This is a very serious question. Since what we usually refer to as “weight” is actually mass if we use weight-loss drugs are we technically using weapons of mass destruction? :3c

    They are carbon positive. With people losing weight, that fat gets released as CO2 into the air

      Doubtful since they decrease appetite, which will decrease carbon emissions far more than the tiny amount your body releases.

      Consider the carbon cost of manufacturing and distributing the drug too. The most carbon friendly thing you can do it store as much carbon as you can in your body. After you die we can seal you in a drum and throw it into an exhausted oil well.
