"
the carbon-neutral campaign is a sign of the times easy on the sacrifice and big on the consumerism." It's so typical of liberals...."style over substance" and their mantra, "intentions" trump reality. Jesse Jackson forgave Bill Clinton because after all, Bill didn't intend to hurt his wife and child when he messed around with Monica. So we can forgive Al Gore and his cronies for their empty intentions to help the environment with their smoke and mirrors carbon offsets.

"But is the carbon-neutral movement just a gimmick?" Give it time and the gimmick will become a tax.

I have carbon off-sets for sale. I do not operate a fleet of executive jets. All of the pollutants I don’t put in the atmosphere with the jets I don’t operate are available for purchase for those who need off-sets.
Take your time ordering, I have an unlimited supply of off-sets.

It puts about $28 of each round-trip ticket into a fund for global projects that, in theory, squelch as much carbon dioxide as the airline generates about 1.2 tons per passenger, the airline says. 'in theory' being the operative word here. The 'theory' here is beyond hoax level. . .
Could we just 'stop the madness'? I fear not. . .

Of course its a fraud - liberals know demanding people sacrifice their standard of living and creature comforts in exchange for reducing global warming isn't exactly a vote getter. So they're telling them that if you contribute to carbon offsets you can look like you're doing something for the Cause even when in reality it does nothing of the sort. Hey, at least you can feel better knowing you did something to save the environment. Which is the whole point behind this gimmick.
