I mean... It would increase the CO2 amount i was indirectly responsible for. There is no logical reason to rescue them all. Only "emotional" reasons.

Refusing to look at any effect except climate effects doesn't sound very "logical" to me.

Its also more resource efficient in general... Tell me the downsides of non interference in this situation.

Sorry, I don't have the qualifications to tell you "mass murder isn't a good thing," But you'll be happy to know that there are people trained in this sort of thing that you can talk to.

Its not mass murder. Its just ignoring an accident. Very different

There's no moral difference between refusing to save a life (at least when you can do so without putting your own life in danger) and actively killing someone.

No thats wrong. If you think so thats your opinion but in reality its a big difference.

and how much co2 does the trolley use, exactly?

perhaps one of these ppl will shut down a coal factory in the future and offset all of their emissions massively.

also, why do u care so much for their co2 emissions if life has only "emotional" importance to u?
