If you own a giant company making billions of dollars, and you create CO2 emissions as part of your production...you are now in "trouble" with the EPA.

But there may be NO way for you to produce that product without some CO2 emissions.

So the EPA sets up "carbon credits". And they give every industry a certain number of them.

The carbon credit allows your company to put out a certain amount of tons of co2 into the air each year.

But what happens if you put out more?

Well, they made SELLING the carbon credits legal!

Open your eyes.

So if you have a company that produces a product with very little CO2 emissions...you will have a bunch of "extra" carbon credits.

And there is a market for that. Hundreds of millions of dollars being made with "carbon credit" trading.

Now seriously Richard. If you are not up to speed on this subject...please don't derail the thread by making me give you these long explanations. Just do what I do...stay out of it if you aren't up to speed.

You've just successfully deflected me showing crockett why he is dead fucking wrong.
