Carbon Offsets?
It has been shown that Al Gores carbon offsets that he purchases to make up for the obscene amount of energy he uses, are to a company that he owns. Doesn't that make him a hypocrite?

Is the selling of carbon offsets nothing more then a scam?
There are some things you just gotta do yourself. Someone else can’t lose your weight, quit your addiction, parent your kids, or confess your sins.
You have to do it. And, just as you can’t buy indulgences that allow you to go right on sinning without any consequences, you can’t buy carbon offsets that allow you to go right on polluting without any consequences, either.
Neither God nor science works that way.
Yet, the selling of “voluntary carbon offsets”—eco-indulgences—is a $55 million per year industry, involving over three dozen companies worldwide. Total sales are anticipated to double both this year and next, and entrepreneurs are clamoring all over themselves for a piece of the action.
And it’s all a scam.

Does Carbon Offsets have any similarity to Papal Indulgences?
For centuries, the selling of Papal Indulgences was a major fund-raising endeavor for the Roman Catholic church. For a large fee, the wealthy could buy their way into heaven. The Pardoner was one of Chaucer's most vivid portraits of corruption, and indulgences were a major catalyst for Martin Luther's 95 Theses. Are environmentalists undermining the legitimacy and integrity of their own movement by promoting the sale and transfer of carbon offsets?

Where can I advertise The Carbon Offsets I am selling? Also Is my price competitive?
I am looking for the best websights to start advertisng the Carbon Offsets I am selling. Also does anyone have any good idea's for designs of the certficates? I want them to look really cool. I was thinking of charging $1 per carbon hour. At an average of 2 driving hours a day they will be about $60 for a month of in a standard Vehicle getting an average of 20 miles to the gallon. Is this a fair price?

How many carbon offsets does Al Gore have to purchase to compensate for each mornings bowel movement?
From looking at the massive size of his fat anus,one can only imagine the amount of deadly gases released each time he takes a dump! I bet he is right up their with a full grown cow when it comes to polluting the earth's atmosphere.

Is this one of the unintended consequences of Global Warming and the selling of carbon offsets?
http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/world/asia/article2337485.ece
In [the Times article] it was revealed that the leader of the UK Conservative Party, David Cameron, offsets his carbon emissions by effectively keeping brown people in a state of bondage. Whenever he takes a flight to some foreign destination, Cameron donates to a carbon-offsetting company that encourages people in the developing world to ditch modern methods of farming in favour of using their more eco-friendly manpower to plough the land. So Cameron can fly around the world with a guilt-free conscience on the basis that, thousands of miles away, Indian villagers, bent over double, are working by hand rather than using machines that emit carbon.
Welcome to the era of eco-enslavement.
