Can pubs prevent global warming?

Question

Instead of transporting bottles of drink from out-of town stores to our homes, if every street corner had a bar we could walk to, would that reduce carbon emmissions?

Answer 1

Still you would have people driving their cars rather than walk 500 feet or so.

Answer 2

Yes yes yes! I love that idea. I'm lucky enough to live near a brewery pub. But I have a suggestion: Instead of bars on every corner, how about setting up a home brewery? Zero emissions there. (Except the happy belching of self and crew of course.)

Answer 3

yes 4 some time it will be interesting 4 the addicts but drinking openly,any where,every where will spoil the society.ur idea can be modified,even transport of mineral water also causes a lot of global warming.so we can make places at every corner where potable water is available.

Answer 4

that wont prevent global warming.. it might reduce some emissions.. but its still contributing because you still have delivery to the pub itself PLUS loss of land and resources that went into making the pub and tables and chairs etc...especially if you had one on every street corner.

best way would be for people to simply stop throwing their money away on booze in the first place.

Answer 5

Oh aye, an' they'll surely warm the cockles of yer heart too, they will! Say: move to Dublin. There's more than enough pubs in that lovely town...

Answer 6

I think the corner bar needs to make a comeback, but there still needs to be a way that the beverages get to the bar.

Answer 7

A fantastic idea,such bars would surely merit a substantial reduction in tax on any alcohol that they sold on environmental grounds.

Answer 8

Brilliant!

Answer 9

Brilliant!

Answer 10

Just goes to show, the only real and lasting solution to your problems involves alcohol.

Answer 11

no, beer gives off emissions (gas). maybe could make a dent if people stopped drinking tho.
