News From Copenhagen: Denmark Rife With CO2 Fraud
Watts Up With That (Copenhagen Post) ^ | Dec 1, 2009 | staff

Posted on 12/02/2009 7:47:22 AM PST by Brugmansian

Denmark is the centre of a comprehensive tax scam involving CO2 quotas, in which the cheats exploit a so-called ‘VAT carrousel’, reports Ekstra Bladet newspaper.

Police and authorities in several European countries are investigating scams worth billions of kroner, which all originate in the Danish quota register. The CO2 quotas are traded in other EU countries.

Denmark’s quota register, which the Energy Agency within the Climate and Energy Ministry administers, is the largest in the world in terms of personal quota registrations. It is much easier to register here than in other countries, where it can take up to three months to be approved.

The entire carbon tax fraud was cooked up several years ago and it is a HUGE SCAM. Read about it here, from 2002.

Last time I was in Copenhagen, the urine smell at the ‘party port’ was enough to knock you clean out.

The rest of the city was fairly nice.

Carbon trading and evasion will make the gangs which rose during prohibition look like petty criminals.

A billion dollar European carbon credit scam? Who'd a think. LOL.
(I wonder how much kroner Al Gore scarfed up from this deal).

A sign of what cap and trade would become here under the Obama/Acorn/Chicago politics - administration.
