By riding in a diesel powered bus? WTF is that proving?

Dozens or more ride a bus while one or two burn about the same amount of
diesel aboard a yacht. And, some busses these days are using propane which is
much cleaner than diesel which is a primitive engine and a dirty fuel.

The pollution level per capita is much much less for a tour bus than for a
private yacht.

What utter Bull ****. A 500 HP bus compared with a 50 HP auxiliary
motor.

But more to the point.... How would an arm-chair sailor know all this
technical information? Read it in a magazine, or course.
