I'm just a regular guy but when some rich guy spouts how I have to cut my consumption of fossil fuels because I'm killing the environment while he jets around the world in his private jet... if it smells like...???
BUT, they'll sell you some carbon credits if you have enough money and you can burn as much as you want. If that doesn't have scam written all over it, some people are dumber than me.
You'll get a debate about if it is/isn't until all the polar caps melt. If the scientists can't agree what makes you think us sailors know better. (granted some are scientists). I read one piece that carbon credits do exactly zip... excuse me while I don't go find that piece, its probably a moot point as someone will say its wrong. Which is my point exactly. We're debating a point that NO ONE WILL EVER AGREE ON!!
Peace,
