Hearing people talk about these give me the same vibes as techbros talking about stocks and crypto.
- hnhg 4y agoA corporate carbon footprint isn't a scam if it's calculated using primary data and according to the GHG Protocol standards - https://ghgprotocol.org/ https://ghgprotocol.org/
- thomasmost 4y ago+1, it also really depends on the offset (as to whether it's a scam or not)—like I talked about elsewhere, even our low-cost offset is a much more credible project than some of the credits frequently purchased by big companies. If we don't start changing the standard for what's acceptable, who will, ya know?
- pawsforthought 4y agoIncidentally, do you have any advice or resources for assessing the credibility of carbon offsets (for purchase by individuals I suppose, not that it should make much difference)?
