The actual title of the piece is:
Polygon: 99.1% of carbon emissions could be eradicated, thanks to…

Polygon [MATIC] had revealed earlier in April 2022 that it was working towards reducing the carbon emissions that emerge from its network. According to the company, achieving the goal of being carbon negative was vital to its “Green Manifesto.”

Luckily, the Ethereum Merge will bathe Polygon in a green glow - without the network having to actually do anything - apart from being smug in public.

“The Merge is estimated to cancel out a whopping 99.91% of Polygon’s network carbon emissions, reducing the annual total to just 56.22 tCO2e. That footprint, a fraction of Polygon’s closest competitors, will make the chain one of the greenest in Web3”.

How excited are you? Please, don't get too excited as heavy breathing and an elevated pulse may require you to do some penance to bring your own carbon footprint back within normative limits.

If you visit the Crypto Carbon Rating Institute (CCRI) and feel the need to throw up, your spyphone will alert authorities that you are a value-denier and thus a potential disruptor and future terrorist.

Let us all ignore the thousands of toxins fed to humans as ersatz food, and let's all blame a totally innocent molecule that is vital - really vital, not woke-vital - to all plant life on this planet.
