Question

At the Demorcratic convention people will be ALLOWED to buy them to offset their travel there how does this help save the planet? Who gets the money from carbon credits, Al Gore?

Answer 1

it doesn't.  it is a "gullable tax".

Answer 2

Carbon credits are a money making scam, nothing more. They do not help save the environment.

Answer 3

It does nothing at all to save the planet, nothing. It's a Gore plan to make millions, and it has worked.  

Answer 4

It doesn't. It is a fraud. Algore and his ilk sell absolution for pollution, which is not pollution at all, but the most common element in the Universe.

In exchange they give you a certificate with a promise that the money you spend will be invested in only energy saving stocks. What he doesn't tell you is that he owns the company you are giving the money too, and he is going to invest it however he likes, because it is now HIS money.

This is a FRAUD. Nothing more, nothing less. Democrats know that their constituents are stupid. The spent years making sure Public Education expelled only stupid followers.

i don't know

Answer 6

The last thing I bought from the government(OK it was bought FOR me, as a child) was a savings bond. I'll be damned if I'll buy something like this, for a purpose that no one can even prove.
