If people are really all that worried about their automobiles destroying the environment, shouldn't they consider using a horse and buggy, or maybe even their own two feet?

Well considering it gives the economy a chance to regulate its own emissions, which is the dogma of conservative ideology on the economy being able to regulate itself, with an environmentalist spin, i think it is a great idea.
If the business wants to make some extra $$ off the carbon credits, they can reduce their own emissions and sell them to someone else.
this way there is no "damage" to the economy(even if that assumption was sound) and more responsible corporations are being paid to be environmentally friendly.
whether or not it will work for the long haul, is a matter of doubtful speculation, but it is a great test of whether or not the economy has the ability to regulate itself.

there's a lot of great inventions since the horse and buggy ya know....bicycles, electric trains, street cars. The 'credit' thing is nothing but a 'free market' device that will not work in the long run.

Maybe you have a point. Should we really have to jump into our Chevy Tahoe to drive two blocks to the store to buy a pack of gum? Everyone needs to take some personal responsibility in conservation.

To be honest, I care so little about "carbon credits" that I have never even bothered to read an explanation of what it is.

I think carbon credits are BS but, each one of us should be reponsible enough to do what we can to lessen our impact on the environment.
