You're over here talking about elephants in the room having a conversation about the carbon footprint of a coffee filter while ignoring the much higher carbon cost of growing roasting and transporting the actual coffee. You vaguely reference studies of heart disease from paper filters but dont cite them. Were they bleached paper filters? I have no idea. Either way the filter removes carcinogens, are you arguing that the carcinogens are actually needed? You're argument seems to boil down to "who cares", and if thats the case why do you care to reply to my comments? Look if you wanna talk im open to having a conversation that isn't as stupid as this one, but this is one of the dumbest nonpolitical exchanges ive had in a while.
So you DO get my point, yeah? Elephants in the room should be considered first and foremost. Drinking non-paper filtered coffee every day is trivial to your risks of getting cancer compared to so many other things in our environment. I hope it clicks for you. :)
You don't have a point :)
