In case you're still littering comfortably, blasting the air conditioner when it's not actually hot, or driving for distances that are easily walkable, chances are someone has swiped left on you because your pictures clearly show that the environment isn't exactly a deciding factor for you, or, someone has noticed your not-so-green habits over a date or two, and decided to eco dump you.

Yes, it's a thing. Canadian online dating app Plenty of Fish has pointed out that breaking off a relationship or an online match because of someone's attitude towards the planet is now a legit deal breaker for some. Whether that's judgemental of people or not is subjective, but it's surely a factor solid enough to show how dating parameters have evolved way beyond the 'dog person v/s cat person' prompts and the 420 friendly' bios.
