So if third-party certification programs don’t alleviate your fear of getting scammed, there’s another ethical option. The next time you take a trip, you could skip the offsets and donate an equivalent amount of money to a civic leader or organization working to make cleaner transportation options available to more people.

Problem solved. The socialist bartender hardest hit.

How about just planting more trees?

They absorb CO2 and release oxygen, It is photosynthesis.

We don’t need to kill industries. Just plant trees. Problem solved, if there is any.

:: the root of the problem: the lack of cleaner transportation options. ::

So, to assuage their guilt, everyone should move to large urban centers and utilize rail and bus systems. What is it with Fascists and public transportation? (Mussolini). Even today, Europeans will tell you how good and reliable their train systems are. Sheep.

How many times have politicians (mostly Democrats) promised to solve a problem if we funded something?

War on drugs
War on poverty
War on crime
Fix infrastructure

Taxes raised, programs created yet every one of these problems grew in size.

Even if you believe in man-made climate change, why would you believe taxes can fix it?

Rumor has it that bartender OAC wants to ban sodas. Drink TEA.

The fizz that bubbles up when you crack open a can of soda is carbon dioxide gas (CO2). Soft drink manufacturers add this tingling froth by forcing carbon dioxide and water into your soda at high pressures—up to 1,200 pounds per square inc

The goal is to reduce the total amount of heat-trapping gases, and legitimate offset projects do that.

Really? How does that work?

If the author of this screed truly believes that gases trap heat (above what their physical properties would suggest), can he please explain the physics behind this? In all of the anthropogenic “global warming/climate change” fear mongering, I never see the fear mongers give a good solid physical mechanism for how CO2 causes more heat that can be explained by normal thermodynamic processes. I’ll bet that they don’t even have any kind of a science education that would enable them to even offer such an explanation.

And no, scientific papers that state “X is occurring because of global warming” do not, in fact, provide evidence of said “global warming.”

when I first heard of the carbon offsets scam, I thought of Angel on the Rockford Files. I can picture a scene where Angel says to Rockford “Jimmy! two words...carbon offsets!”
