Well, they definitely use more resources.

  • Their clothes take more material, don't last as long, require more loads to launder, and can't be donated because no one wants something worn by fats.

  • They are less likely to walk or bike somewhere. More likely to drive car. Car will not be compact because they can't fit in compact. The extra weight causes more strain on the vehicle and uses more gas. Fats have to replace vehicles more frequently. They also need to replace any product that supports their weight (furniture) more often too.

  • Fats use more farming and agricultural resources. They eat more and will waste food in certain situations that benefit them. For example, ordering 4 pizzas and returning 4 half eaten pizzas in order to get money back / free meal. Just by nature of overeating it is a waste of food.

  • Fats are more likely to use more energy. They need to run the AC lower than a human in an attempt to minimize sweating and be comfortable. They cook more food and use more dishes. Just by nature of being overweight, it takes more energy to do things. This makes them lazy, for example: fat forgets to turn off light leaving room, but has already sat down, that light will be on all night!

  • Fats require more medical treatment. Medical treatment usually comes with some kind of cost to the environment. For example, the prevalence of anti-biotics. Certain medical wastes are bad for the environment or hard to dispose of. Not to mention all the personnel, facilities and special bariatric medical supplies.

The environmentally friendly thing would be to either harpoon them as a harpoon can be used over and over again. Alternatively they could be forced to spend all waking hours minimum 16 on tread mills to generate electric for humans.

All of this, and then some I am sure. If something were to wipe out all the fats I'm convinced the world would last alot longer. Being fat should be illegal, punishable by prison sentence including mandatory rationing and forced labor/exercise. You get out once you're human, and if you become fat again you are summarily executed because you were given a chance already, repeat offenders will not be tolerated.

Excellent, thank you for confirming my idea.
