Honest Howe’s carbon credits. Get them while they’re hot.
The guy should have invested in Tulips.
There were a hot item once upon a time and at least he would have some nice flowers.
Somebody has some offshore accounts.
What’s a carbon credit?
Short answer. You give me a pile of money. I give you a piece of paper promising to bury some carbon in a place that’s somewhere out of your sight. I might or might not do this, it’s really the piece of paper that’s important.
The paper gives you absolution from all the self-guilt and accusations of your friends for flying your private jet around the world and cruising on your million-dollar yacht.
It’s like an anti climate change talisman, for virtue signaling people with far too much money.

Exactly.
I never saw this coming.
Farmers.
But farmers also emit smaller amounts of carbon along the way, so ruling class hates them and wants them destroyed.
It's almost as if the carbon business is a BS excuse for profiteering and pushing people around.
They were attempting to run an extortion ring using .gov to collect money at gunpoint.
The same folks probably will try to sell tickets to see their cats perform as a marching drill team.
Bkmk
They forgot to exhale.
I’ve seen those, impressive. I hear it runs on solar power and rainwater, incredible. Someone should mass market these things.
Marty Odlin is the new P.T. Barnum "There's a carbon sucker born every minute".
What did they do with their money? Did they have some kind of mechanical systems that required maintenance/replacement?
How many new millionaires were made with this scam?
I wonder how much of a cut Mills and her CABAL got.
It is amazing how with $50 million dollars they were able to extract 50 million pounds of CO2.
I had an old professor. “When the number seems too obvious, they may have just used the ‘left hand’ rule and pulled that number out of their ass.”
It cost them $1/pound to extract the CO2.
A person exhales a little over 2 pounds of CO2 a day.
I say we pool our quarters together and pay the liberals two bits to hold their breath for a half-hour.
Selling Carbon Credits = A Scam...
