"He said he also buys carbon offsets — a service that tries to reduce the net carbon emissions of individuals or organizations indirectly, through proxies that reduce their emissions and/or increase their absorption of greenhouse gases."Good to know the rich can consume as much of the earth's resources as they want and keep a clean conscience by simply paying someone else to make sacrifices for them...
Exactly! These neo-greenies want the liberals to believe it is possible not to consume fossil fuels. Sorry, it just isn't possible. Not until every vehicle runs on electricity or hydrogen, and that all electricity is generated by solar, wind, hydro, or nuclear sources. Until then, he is producing proportionally more greenhouse gasses, no matter how much he pays to make his guilt go away.The funniest part of this is that the best chance we have to reduce the carbon footprint is to increase the usage of nuclear power. Talk about your liberal dilemma!!
People who have enough money to consume as much of the earth's resources as they want and keep a clean conscience by simply paying someone else to make sacrifices for them. Weren't you listening?
Looks like they are getting at least some of their power from renewable resources and they are refitting the house for solar power. More than most people do I'm sure.
The funny part to me is he waited until after his movie was out to remodel his house and using solar power. Don't you think that should have been done before the whole so-called documentary was even started. Second, who cares if its green energy, its still being used by his mansion instead of someone else that doesn't require 20x as much energy.
