Carbon credits is a way to treat companies with kid gloves and ask them nicely not to destroy the planet. Instead we should just have hard well enforced regulations and emissions caps. not “Cap and Trade”, “Cap or Else”, If a company consistently can’t meet emissions targets Nationalize it pierce the cooperate veil and prosecute its management.
You didnt even read my comment, did you? Also, you should do some research about carbon credits if youre gonna start a discussion about them because it seems you dont really know what those are
Anything that a carbon credit program reduces could be done without the carbon credit, but there are many carbon credit programs that accomplish nothing except acting as a smokescreen.
