I'm deadset against the concept of paying money to fix the environment. Claiming to be carbon neutral vs. the reality of wrecking planet, doing nothing to help, while paying to absolve yourself of responsibility seems like a celebration of modern hubris.
Apple seems like a perfect example. For the last 5-10 years, it's been clear that they are wasting tons of resources selling adapters. They also happen to be a company with tons of cash on hand.
So it should be no shock that they think the idea of paying to win the morality game is great. However, has anybody noticed this is total nonsense!?!? You're still releasing carbon, assholes.
Gutter punk throws a empty beer can at a tech bro, understandably annoyed, the tech bro yells "have you any idea the damage to the environment". This coming from a guy that eats fast food 8 times a week, has a trash cup every morning with coffee, and throws out half their clothes and housewares every year.
Gutter punk responds "I will always be better for the environment, since I use less; I can piss wherever I want, and throw my trash anywhere, it won't make a dent compared to your waste."
Tech bro responds "... but I have more money than you; surely I am more moral. Can't I just pay $2k to put the genie back in the bottle?"
