How does that old queen pay to 'offset carbon' . Plant a few million trees which not be of any use to remove carbon from the atmosphere at 35000 feet. Is this the same as the RSPO certificates that prove that the palm oil comes from ethical rain forests where the employees are not working in slave conditions.
There are countless examples where these idiots can be separated from their money to salve their concience if they know what that is and help their PR.
Harry is in my mind just another upperclass idiot with an entitlement complex just because he was born in the right bed and feels he can tell us how to live our lives while he does as he wants because he is important.

And you think that half the planet really give a f**k about their carbon footprint? At least Harry wasn’t pretending to care like most.

Carbon offsetting.
2 wrongs don't make a right or do they?
Cut 1 tree down and plant 10 all is well is it?:scratchhead:

Plant 10 trees in the wrong place and you may cause untold environmental damage.

If this carbon offset thing ever gets off the ground for real it will be open to corruption like you would never believe Id put money on it.

Get used to this - if you are still farming a decade from now it will be a major part of your income

It's not a daft as it initially sounds if the carbon bond is used to create or support green capital / carbon sequestration which simply wont happen for free

we should be over joyed about this - we are sat on gold !
