Dinosaur, Driving, and Energy: BIG THINK Big Think @bigthink Your Netflix binge-watching makes climate change worse, say experts. The emissions generated by watching 30 minutes of Netflix is the same as driving almost 4 miles Lex Croucher @lexcanroar cool to guilt-trip ordinary people for every tiny thing that might spark joy while oil execs dip their hands in big barrels of dinosaur juice to lube up every time they have a wank aspiderperday: Just looked up how many kilowatt hours are used for 30 minutes of TV. It comes out to .016 kwh. EPA states that one gallon of gasoline equals about 33.7 kwh. If you’re driving a standard car that gets… let’s say 20 mpg? then 1 mile of driving is about 1.69 kwh. So 4 miles of driving is 6.76 kilowatt hours, not .016. If I’m doing my math right (which I might not be, cuz math) you’d have to watch 105 hours of netflix to equal the same energy usage as driving your car a single mile.
