So, Someone is making money on Carbon Credits and someone is making money selling green items to companies to offset buying carbon credits. Follow the money.

Do you do that about oil?

How about fracking?

Follow the money can be said about anything in life. A brilliant comment, it is not.

I can actually tell you how this can work. Lets say you have a huge area of wheat straw. Instead of burning the fields which causes tons of Co2 you build a paper mill who uses the stubble to make pulp.

You can sell the pulp to paper mills which add it to wood to create paper they sell. The stubble pulp is considered GREEN and will be useful in your carbon footprint saving you carbon credit taxes.

But in your mind, it's all a scam.

Fracking is done on private lands. These companies employ thousands of Americans with great paying jobs. States that do much of the fracking have had booms to the areas. Are you against great paying jobs Noel? Also, the abundance of natural gas and oil has lowered prices for us at the gas station and in home heating prices. Again, Noel are you against lowered prices?
