I have a couple of friends who also purchase the carbon credits each time they fly

[Puppage]

purchase the carbon credits

ie....the buying of nothing.

[Dilbert San Diego]

I never bought carbon credits. I guess I’m condemned to global warming hell.......I’m not a member in good standing of the Al Gore church of mother Earth.

That’s not news. He did it because March a Shriver refused to move to Sacramento.

Where does the money go from purchasing these carbon credits? Al Gore?

[HotHunt]

Where exactly does one purchase these "carbon credits" that magically cleanse the environment of the pollution the purchasers are spewing into the air?

And what exactly are these "carbon credits" and what do they actually do?

Who determines how many credits you need to buy to assuage your guilt of all the pollution you are creating?

Is there a bank for trading these credits? Are they bits of paper or plastic or just digital tracks on the internet.

How do you buy the credits, with cash or credit card?

And finally, who is getting fabulously wealthy off of this scam?
