“requiring America to purchase offsetting carbon credits”
I presume that by now some enterprising environmentalist has figured out a way to blame the volcanic eruption in Iceland on GWB, in which case “penance” in the form of carbon credits obviously would be warranted.
I want to know the dollar value of carbon credits Al Gore has had to purchase to offset all the hot air coming out of his own mouth. IIRC, he claims to have achieved a zero carbon footprint through such carbon credit purchases.
Absolutely!
