It's been a while since I read it through but their basic point is that carbon credits are to the environment what indulgences were to the mediaeval church.
- ovi256 18y agoMediaeval Catholic church please. No other church sold indulgences (the other major church, Eastern Orthodox, definitely did not). Yeah, I'm a semantic nazi. PS: great comparison, I'll steal it for my own arguments. With your permission of course.
- m0nty 18y ago"With your permission of course." Not my comparison, so go ahead. The PDF I linked to was interesting because I'd always wondered if carbon trading (in all its forms) helped much, and the answer seems to be "no".
