Thx for having this great forum, which I am reading for quite some time; but now the time has come for me to post something myself.
I was meeting an old friend last weekend, who has studied abroad. When chatting about life, he asked about my "weird" hobby of car tuning and driving. He argued that this is no more appropriate given the rise of climate change. Of course, I defended myself and tried to get the talk in another direction. However, even afterward all that felt a bit odd. I also did not criticize his hobbies. Still, I would be interested if you have experienced similar things, such as your friends or family complaining about the tuning scene because of environmental issues?
