Global Warming Hubris: Carbon Credit Market is a "Feel-Good About Polluting" SCAM, Nothing More

The carbon offset market is FINALLY being shown to be a huge fraud that takes provides those with a guilty conscience (about contributing to the world's carbon emission problem) a "feel-good" solution that ultimately does nothing. This is really dumb. And now some in the media seem to be treating the carbon market with a bit of well-earned skepticism.

Here's another report.

The Hollywood crowd that has joined the global warming alarmism campaign and use their celebrity star power to spread the word about the "threat" of global warming and toot their own horns about purchasing carbon credits should ground their private gas-guzzling jets instead. That would stop the carbons from getting into the atmosphere more than purchasing carbon credits from questionable sources who may not be doing what they're saying they're doing to reduce carbon. Or selling credits that they've already sold to someone else.

Global warming is inevitable, with or without us adding to or taking away from it. It's going to happen regardless of what we do, which makes this claim of man-made global warming highly dubious at best. If the governments of the world want to improve the environment for everyone, I am in complete agreement with that.

But trying to stop something that's as inevitable as global warming is the height of folly. Those with guilty consciences should learn to LIVE WITH IT and plant the damn trees themselves.

Someone, PLEASE, save these people from themselves!

But if no one wants to, then here's how to jump in on this fiasco.
