It’s even worse. The places that sell carbon offsets are often poorer parts of the world. The selling is essentially a privatization of carbon sinks. As is tradition, these privatizations are very under-priced. Worse still, as they’re selling carbon sinks, they will not have those carbon sinks for themselves in the future if they choose to “develop” and emit more GHGs… they’ll have to buy carbon credits from some other fools and the prices are not likely to be lower.
It’s all very silly.

Technically, instead of bananas it could be feed crops.
The great filter is here. Time to see if this global civilization and shrink its ego enough to fit through it.

The culture wars are about the class war indirectly. Women are famously the first large underclass, worse than workers who don’t own the means of production: workers who don’t even own themselves, workers who do a second shift at home which goes unpaid and unrecognized in pensions and healthcare.
Failure to understand how these are connected translates into failure to achieve solidarity.
When it comes to aviation in general — something only a small share of the world’s population takes part in — it contributes roughly 2.5 per cent of all CO2 emissions and has thus far contributed to roughly four per cent of global warming.
haha
“Ignore the 892 Mt CO2, focus on the 15.6 Mt CO2!”
(from the paper https://www.nature.com/articles/s43247-024-01775-z )
also this:
Global commercial aviation is estimated to have emitted 892–936 Mt carbon dioxide (CO2) in 20191,2,3 and is responsible for about 4% of global net anthropogenic effective radiative forcing4,5.

The invention of airplanes was a mistake that needs to be reversed urgently.
Where are the tractor protestors now?
Trump is still pink white. The makeup perhaps functions like the masks that entertainment wrestlers wear.
Like those honeypot trap “women’s clinics” where women don’t get access to birth control and abortions.
Did you mean “burn it to the edges!” ?
“We must prioritize policies that protect our economy and our way of life. CO2 is an essential nutrient for mass, driving growth and boosting plant production. According to the CO2 Coalition, higher CO2 levels have led to healthier crops and improved food security worldwide,” said a UCP member speaking in favour of the policy who cited the notorious CO2 Coalition.
Well, that is the core of conservatism (the first bit).
The flaming leopards are going to become obese.
The UN seems to be running out of vocabulary to describe how serious the danger is.
