Should we all have our firms go carbon neutral now?

Answer 1

Lame.  

I find it scary that you see a few plastic surgeons doing it so you want to make the whole world do it.  Since when do we model our lives based on plastic surgeons?

I would bet that my lawn and gardens suck up as much CO2 as I crank out in a year.  I have a whole lot of plant life outside my house, including about 60 HUGE trees.

Answer 2

No. I will never be carbon neutral because I like to breathe, thank you very much. I don't care about a harmless compound either that happens to be one of the most essential on Earth.

Answer 3

Interesting that a news article is what made your decision. Going carbon neutral is a step yet not a sustainable solution. If you support the environmental cause and have reduced your consumption as much as possible while making economic sense I would say it is not a bad next step. Other things that you can do is sponsor environmental causes that you believe in, but more so get involved and informed on the issues and political policies that are being made around your community, city, state/province, country.

Answer 4

It is a scam propagated by your teachers. Go measure the CO2 as it has not increased any. The plants are taking care of it and like it.
