Carbon Whore

A person who frequently or impulsively travels long distances, often by carbon-emitting transportation (planes, cars, etc.), to pursue their hobby or passion, such as cycling, running, or creating travel content. While their adventures are often enviable and inspiring, their carbon footprint is notably high, leading to a mix of admiration and environmental guilt

"Dude, did you see Juliet's latest video? She flew to Girona just to hit some gravel tracks. Total Carbon Whore, but man, those views were epic."

"Ben's a total Carbon Whore—he’s always jetting off to some new country to run marathons and post about it. His Instagram is fire, but his carbon footprint is probably melting the polar ice caps."

Mâle Alpha Carbone

Cadre quinquagénaire ultra-performant qui optimise sa vie comme son vélo en carbone : plus léger, plus rapide, plus efficace.
Il affiche sa supériorité par des photos de randos cyclistes hors de prix avec ses potes corporate, avant d’upgrader sa compagne vieillissante contre une version plus fraîche (souvent une subordonnée)

Tu as vu ce que Jean-Marc a posté ? Encore une sortie vélo de 150 km avec son groupe de cadres. Ah, et il a viré sa femme pour sa stagiaire. Classique Mâle Alpha Carbone.

Carbon Tunnel Syndrome

“Carbon Tunnel Syndrome" describes the phenomenon whereby there is an overemphasis - or exclusive emphasis - on climate change, particularly carbon reduction, to the exclusion of other important sustainability issues, such as human rights, social sustainability, and equity considerations. This term conveys that the narrow focus on carbon-related aspects of sustainability may result in a "tunnel vision" effect, where other equally critical sustainability dimensions are overlooked or marginalised, potentially leading to unintended consequences or incomplete sustainability efforts.

While the focus on carbon reduction is undoubtedly critical in addressing climate change, the term "Carbon Tunnel Syndrome" communicates that an excessive or exclusive emphasis on this aspect of sustainability may result in unintended consequences. One potential implication of "Carbon Tunnel Syndrome" is that other important sustainability issues, such as social justice, human rights, labour rights, and equity considerations, may be overlooked or marginalised in sustainability efforts.

Low Carbon

Low in carbon usage. Carbon is what we create when we work or even breath. Making a product like shampoo puts out a certain amount of carbon. When transporting it to the store the amount of fuel burnt is carbon.

When trucking that product to the store they burnt less fuel so it was a low carbon delivery.
