Oh god, please stop with to carbon credits. Otherwise we'll be living in a world where companies are incentivized by governments to burn fossil fuels in giant tractors to chop down forests because its "good for the environment"

God help us from this buerrocratic nightmare

Ok yeah, this probably the stupidest shit I've seen in a while. People talking about carbon and trees but they have not touched grass in decades it seems
