Carbon offsets are a scam.
I told you so.
https://www.theguardian.com/environm...m-warn-experts
There's lots of articles that will turn up with a little searching, no surprise ddg turns up more of them than goolag.
You want "carbon offset" quit being anti nuclear, start simping for nukes, vote for nuclear power.

Good thoughts on nuclear power. And it's sad that there is corruption in government.
But if I vote I'd vote to keep politics out of the forum. Thanks!

Some people only joined the forum because politics dictate aspects such as fuel prices, emission regulations and overall fuel-efficiency targets.
Back on topic: a French company now owns the coal-fueled powerplant I went on a tour 23 years ago, and around 2 years ago there were rumors it would be decomissioned. Well, there is a cement factory right across the street (actually one of the most important Brazilian roadways) which uses heavy ashes from that powerplant as a feedstock. Not to mention Germany had to recomission its coal-fueled powerplants due to the political tensions between the EU and Russia due to the war in Ukraine, since most of the natural gas consumed in Western Europe was imported from Russia. |

The definition of politics is government compulsion of behavior or money.
Most of my comments are anti-politics in that I advocate against compulsion.
