A SCHEME and a SCAM.
A SCHEME by the
rich to continue their polluting guilt
free, while the poor will have to make sacrifices for the environment so the
rich can continue to pollute.
A SCAM because there is no independent auditing/verification the scheme is helping the environment.
Anyone can sell carbon credits, but how can it be verified they performed the promised tasks? How much was
actually spent on reducing carbon emmisions?
Screw the environment, I'm gonna carbon credit my way to becoming a billionaire!
