It’s wealth redistribution from the First World to the Third, plus a shit of capital equipment (the means of production) to the Third World.

It has nothing to do with Saving The Planet From Plant Food.

Thank you.

I have asked the moderator to add the missing "et" characters to the end of the subject line.

Second, carbon credits weren't designed to lower emissions. They were designed to shift emissions around. Practically speaking, they will delay the day when we start lowering them.

False! They are designed solely to extract a tax from wealthy nations so that hustlers like Al Gore can earn a collector's fee managing the Carbon Credit racket. Countries like China and India will never pay such fees. They would just laugh at us. I'm sure, however, they are willing partners with Al as the scheme cripples US industry. Al Gore should be drawn and quartered for what he is doing to us.

"from developed nations like Canada to developing ones like China"

When are we going to give up this myth of countries like China being "developing nations"?

* Make all “carbon credit” scams unlawful. Discrediting Algore should have been a slam-dunk a long time ago. Stop electing Reps who buy into the Global Warming / Global Cooling / Climate Change Hoax. CO2 is not our enemy!

Kyoto is the “move your factory to China” treaty.

And carbon credits are a fine on productivity, when the system works, and a money laundering scam when it really works. It is a con game that makes the Oil for Food scammers look like amateurs.

Energy companies and speculators make windfall profits while consumers are hit hard.

"Minorities hardest hit".
