Cash for Carbon

Carbon is not a pollutant, what the fuck do plants use? Carbon trading is a SCAM why is it that the MARKET place is so important? Because there are so many financiers scamming to start trading at huge profits! Again an example of paper money being made with no actual physical gain

[TheCannonofMohammed]

I feel that as long as we feel guilty for farting carbon, the earth will respect this and self-regulate back to climatic equilibrium. Al Gore sets the standard: because of his huge guilt, he gets to have a HUGE carbon footprint, and its OK. Our Mother respects his guilt. This is good.

Carbon Credits = Catholic 'Indulgences'

Work this scam out.

Chemtrails + Mind Control = Climate Change

Beliefs are what is being changed, your TV is designing your idea of Climate change - globally.

Please Google Chemtrails then sign the petition on my channel. Check out the footage of covert aerosol programs (shot in Sydney Aust).

Throw out your TV. Stop going to Uni.

When did they rewrite the science textbooks? Carbon is not a pollutant - especially not the carbon dioxide that's being blamed for global warming/climate change. Plants need it to live. Cut carbon dioxide and you'll likely get more desert areas. Talk about global warming...

[sunnus]

True, Carbon is not a pollutant under normal circumstances. The purpose of carbon credits/ carbon cap and trade is to control the amounts being released by man. Not to remove all CO2 from earth.

[anonymous915]

We only produce 3-4% of all the CO2. Please explain how reducing what we produce is going to make a difference (they have admitted it won't prevent supposed global warming)

[anonymous915]

"The purpose of carbon credits/ carbon cap and trade is to control the amounts being released by man"

The only thing cap and trade will do is make people like Al Gore richer. Those with low incomes, of necessity, have always kept their carbon footprint down. So who is adding all this CO2? Do you suppose Mr. I-grew-up-in-Hawaii is going to lower his thermostat? Do you suppose the White House A/C is kept at 78 in the summer and 68 in the winter?

[sunnus]

The Carbon Cap and Trade is focused toward large corporations. Not the average person. A carbon tax on the other hand would be aimed at the average person, like extra tax on gasoline. The average person will need to cut back in our consumption just like the very rich. We as a species are not living sustainable.

[anonymous915]

You are very naive if you think they won't pass on the expense to their customers.

sunnus-"The average person will need to cut back in our consumption just like the very rich"

I'm not talking "average" - I'm talking about people who already have the thermostat set at levels that endanger their health because they can't afford higher heat/AC bills. "Mr. I-grew-up-in-Hawaii" (Obama) is not going to lower his thermostat and neither is Al Gore. We only produce 3-4% of all the CO2 and the gw promoters have admitted that lowering it will not change "global warming"

[sunnus]

What do you think of an entire new trade on all types of pollutants ? Capping industries on all types of harmful waste.

[anonymous915]

It would only make some people rich (Al Gore, et al) and it would increase costs for the rest of us. It's also very unnecesary; we've come a long way since the 70's.

[steveascension]

I thought I'd post this to add to the debate.

What is going on?

Is global warming true or false?

Why is there so much difference of opinions

[steveascension]

There is a difference of opinions because many people follow the words of others without thinking for themselves. The globe is warming up, but man is not to blame. Most people claim that our CO2 emmissions are causing the increase in temperature, but what Al Gore, and others that make this claim don't tell you is that temperature is changing before CO2 levels. Our ocean heats up and releases CO2. However, scientists don't know for sure what causes the initial temperature increase.

There is no convincing scientific evidence that human release of carbon dioxide, methane or other greenhouse gases is causing or will in the foreseeable future cause catastrophic heating of the Earth’s atmosphere and disruption of the Earth’s climate,” states the petition. In fact, there is substantial evidence that increasing atmospheric carbon dioxide produces many beneficial effects.

Green, Not Gullible

More than 31,000 U.S. scientists, including more than 9,000 Ph.D.s (in fields such as atmospheric science, climatology, Earth science, environment and dozens of other specialties) have signed a petition rejecting “global warming,” the U.N.’s assumption that human production of greenhouse gases is damaging Earth’s climate. This is 15 times more scientists than are supporting the U.N. campaign.

Corporations making us pay for the air we breath, we all knew they would find a way one day.
