No, not comparable.
Val I'm surprised at you. You said you love research but you appear to have done none here. It really makes me think you're not the Val I used to know.

So your point is the the war caused 120 million tons but the decline in Germanys emission is 73 million tons leaving an over all increase of 47 million tons. Ok but that is for one year, If the war ends soon (which is likely) there will be a 73 million ton decrease. So Putin is doing good work in the long term.Val I'm surprised at you.

How to assess the carbon footprint of a war
Researchers must track everything from bomb making or jet fuel burning to the carbon cost of post-conflict rebuilding.
"These researchers estimate the carbon footprint of the first year of the war to be in the region of 120 million tonnes of CO₂e. That’s roughly the annual emissions of Belgium. Ammunition and explosives alone for around 2 million tonnes of CO₂e in that period"
Germany's CO2 emissions are at their lowest in 7 decades, study shows
A study shows that carbon dioxide emissions in Germany, Europe’s biggest economy, dropped to their lowest level in seven decades.
"The Agora Energiewende think tank said its preliminary calculations show that Germany emitted 673 million metric tons of CO2 last year, a decline of 73 million metric tons compared with 2022 and the lowest level since the 1950s."
If Putin stops the war and withdraws, then yes, we'd have a net loss in emissions.
I doubt he'd get an award for it though.
In the long term yes. The destruction of his military ensures that we shouldn't have to worry about increased emissions through the Russian invasion of another country.
I too agree emissions trading is just bogus and is just an attempt to avoid hard decisions.
Putin will stop the war tomorrow if only the Neocons would grow up.Val I'm surprised at you. You said you love research but you appear to have done none here. It really makes me think you're not the Val I used to know.

Destruction of who's military? The production of tanks and munitions has multiplied in Russia by a factor of 2 to 3. What has the west managed?
It is just another part of the carbon scam designed to further enrich big money.
It's all a load of BS at the end of the day.
You will have an election in Ireland later this year. The green party will run candidates. It could be that none will be re-elected or all will be re-elected.
So if we don't vote Green we will have warmer weather in Ireland meaning that we will be burning less fuel to stay warm?
What would Wank do all day every day then?
Val when the two gays were beheaded in Sligo by a Muslim migrant McAleese went on the radio and blamed it on the Irish Catholic church.
That Islamist got a serious beating in prison last week....reported nowhere
I cannot find any reference to that
