...there is now a shortage of skilled technicians to monitor carbon reduction projects and verify that the claimed emissions cuts are taking place.Hmmmmmm....I smell opportunity. Carbon Credit Technician: the new ISO9000 consultant.

To: kinoxi
it doesn’t matter if they can verify the reduced emissions.
Those who buy carbon credits are doing so to feel good about doing something about global warming.
To: Shermy
This has got to be the dumbest scam liberals have ever fell for, except for Al Ron Gore who pays himself for the credits.
I offer the carbon I don’t use as a regular American to the DUmmie elites for $1,000,000/six month period. Such a deal!

“What is going on here?”
There are so many scams that can hide under carbon credit trading, everything is so unverifiable,
But the central one is,
The traders always get their cut.

fell = fallen, though I’m sure it’s all the same to people who actually pay for these indulgences.

China was the biggest beneficiary, selling 61 per cent of last year's carbon credits So the biggest beneficiary's are the biggest offenders? What a scam. Liberals are idiots

Wow. Why didn’t I think of this??
To: Shermy
But the fledgling carbon credit industry is struggling to keep up with demand, the Financial Times has found, as there is now a shortage of skilled technicians to monitor carbon reduction projects and verify that the claimed emissions cuts are taking place. I know where the carbon credits industry can find a ready and willing cadre of like-minded technicians!

May have to wait until they get out of jail tho. And Ken Lay's no longer available...

I'm wondering if I could use this scam to fund some vacation property. Is it really stealing when the mark wants you to take his money?

The MSM like to think of themselves as consumer watchdogs, but on this issue, they will NEVER warn the public that this is a scam.

I thought ill of my grandfather one time, when he said to me...
“You will find out in life that people are basically very stupid...”
God bless his soul — he sure as hell was right.

India and China have the most primitive environmental systems and reap butt loads, while the USA has the most sophisticated emissions controls and gets Nada. I don't have to ask, "What's wrong with this picture?"
