The UK has committerd itself to a 60% carbon emissions reduction for the future. From an 'Expert' on TV we learn that should we not be able (Or are reluctant) to achieve that figure, governments have an agreement that they can buy up to 50% of green credits from under-users. That leaves us with 10% to aim for. Industry accounts for 34% of the 10% and must make an effort, likewise transport and supermarkets who account for the majority of the remaining percentage of the 10%, leaving the public to do nothing but carry on as normal.

It's a con job. Unproven science and dodgy data.

Carbon credits are too good to be true, only a change from fossil fuels to renewable energy will end the "crisis" the world faces. Good men should do something, instead of writing a check for carbon credits to companies with no supervision. No supervision yet. Changes in transportation and conservation should be done by all.
