Let's not forget that there is a lot of people thinking about how to devise a new economy and new streams of corporate power.
If they can get buy in on the creation of a market of carbon offset dollars, then essentially, the failing manufacturing industries and production in NA and Western Europe can make money by charging the people who make all our shit for us to make all our shit for us!
Ultimately, it has to look like it's been sold in the "democratic" countries in order for the countries that use slave and indentured slave labour to agree to paying us to make our stuff for us.
we'll see what happens with this carbon offset stuff.
I don't like the pollution, but to blame humanity for the end of the ice age is ridiculous on so many levels.
yes we pollute, but this earth has seen far worse than us and likely will again long after we are gone...from the sun killing our planet and eventually swallowing it.
thankfully, it is said we have a few billion years before that shit goes down!
Coconuts. Bananas. Mangos. Rice. Beans. Water. It's good.
