This seems like some stupid "Ha stupid eco protester! See, your precious records are also made of oil!" Stupid propaganda from the oil lobby.

It shifts focus away from how terrible they are back to you for enjoying... records this time.

In numbers, greenhouse gasses caused by cars, travel, industrial shipping: 99.9999% Greenhouse gasses caused by vinyl: Minuscule.

No, eff that, I want to keep the conversation on things like people needing gas to drive and how we should be shifting away from that, or natural gas waterheaters/furnaces, or plane travel. Things that actually move the needle. Oil companies would love us to be fighting over vinyl records and straws so we stop talking about actual polluters.
