They're like puppies that never die.60if you want to really make sure you are doing good by the planet, make sure those offset credits go into renewable energy rather than into timber plantations. There is a fairly decisive propaganda campaign by the timber industry to paint timber plantations as "Green" but the truth is they carry a whole range of problems. Offset carbon trading with the credits going to renewable energy sources though is an absolute champion act for the planet, very commendable.http://www.boredomistan.com/2008/january/guilt_moneyhttp://www.boredomistan.com/2008/january/guilt_money/#c20080127150929Sun, 27 Jan 2008 04:09:29 GMTyay4u, a few black balloons were stopped from floating into our atmosphere. carbon emissions are a natural part of mankind's evolution, and destroying our planet over the course of several thousand years is our right. jesus died for our sins, one of which is totally fucking up this planet. i wonder how many black balloons of carbon are created when a terrorist blows himself up? maybe you can pick up the slack, silpy, and buy some more credits to offset those chaps.http://www.boredomistan.com/2008/january/guilt_moneyhttp://www.boredomistan.com/2008/january/guilt_money/#c20080120222320Sun, 20 Jan 2008 11:23:20 GMTThe public can't expect industry to clean up its act without taking some responsibility themselves for consuming their products. That's like suing McDonalds for making you fat. Spot on. The way some people carry on its as if the Industrial Revolution was forced down our unwilling pastoral romantic throats.

Fuck, cash is a much scarcer resource for me than clean air.http://www.boredomistan.com/2008/january/guilt_moneyhttp://www.boredomistan.com/2008/january/guilt_money/#c20080120024634Sat, 19 Jan 2008 15:46:34 GMT
