That's not what this site shows. The numbers are way too low, this cannot include the (indeed) BS like paying a farmer 10 bucks not to remove a tree in the next year or planting trees and pretending on paper like they'll all grow to maturity.
Also confirmed in the discussion elsewhere in this thread: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36190193 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36190193
Baseless criticising of a good thing is what I'd call BS, rather than the companies showing up on this site...
(To be clear, prevention is better than capture from a very simple return on investment perspective, but if these companies would rather pay someone to clean up their mess than do it themselves, and are willing to pay that capture premium.. be my guest. Net zero is net zero. If they price themselves out of the market because capture is so costly, that's their own problem.)
