I don't understand the downvotes and lack of logical answers. I genuinely don't know what they could be trying to say there. Maybe that an American (way above average in driving and eating meat) could reduce their impact by an amount equal to the total GHG of an average world citizen? But it wouldn't really cancel anything out and why would it be relevant to the rest of what's being said?

behavior changes, such as driving less or eating less meat, could theoretically cancel out all the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions an average person produces each year

Driving less and eating less meat means you'd still be driving and eating meat, so how does that work?

"wokism" — now there's a good clean beautiful American-made word.

Thanks to the heroic efforts of law enforcement, several mass murderers have dramatically cut plans to increase the rate at which they murder people.

All other avenues have been exhausted, let's try giving a billion dollars to lawyers and see if that fixes everything.

In terms of mobile internet, Germany barely reaches 68.91 Mbps

The snails in Germany must be somewhat faster than the ones around here.

Just needs a slight tweak to be a little less historically inaccurate: Nobody has ever been "hunted for sport" by a Zoroastrian.

Oh, only a third of all Americans. Practically nobody. Way down there in the less-than-five-billion user club with nodebb and mbin. Why even go there?

There was a sudden unexplained jump in the number of simplified Chinese users counted in the previous survey, few of whom run linux apparently. It was probably some kind of error because their number has now gone back down. People expected it because that's not the first time it happened.

The headline is not clickbait. It's literally just reporting the news. The story beneath it is not sensationalist, it puts the number in context better than you did.
