Send them money to work to offset the pollution you are creating and then some. Kyoto mandates reductions in pollution by 2012 and it will get renewed. The overall level is coming down. You cannot pollute guilt free, you have to pay to pollute. Like a pollution tax. Remember, the more you...

A carbon credit (or otherwise referred to as a carbon offset) is equivalent to 1 ton of CO2 equivalent (i.e. could be SF6 or NOx but they are all converted to CO2 equivalents). Under the Kyoto Protocol, each nation (and in turn each company) is allocated a certain amount of credits allowing them...

You are a reasonable but tough negotiator! :)

No idea what you are talking about?

You probably could make way more than $100k to plant trees if you cordon off enough land and plant enough forest to significantly reduce CO2 from the atmosphere. People are doing this every day. Just do it in a Kyoto country and make your application to the United Nations to approve your...

agmcall you're correct, this is the problem: The whole problem is the Premise We are to believe that carbon, As natural as water, is destroying us. I do not believe that. And, if anybody would do a little research you would come to the same conclusion. That said, 100's of scientists...

It would be great if we could just save money by adapting an environmentally friendly lifestyle (as you claim with your wind turbine) and still maintain the same quality of life. Maybe in some cases that is possible. That said, most environmentally friendly enhancements such as solar power...

So? what's your point? Do you really think people are going to want to give up nice things that they enjoy for a frugal lifestyle? The genie is out of the bottle and that is certainly not a practical solution. Richard Branson is not grounding his planes. However, he buys voluntary offsets to...

Fact: People are making money from creating and selling carbon credits- big money Fact: There are some scammers and cheaters and the mechanics of the model are not perfect yet. Fact: Environmentally friendly projects around the world ARE being done at this very moment and they ARE reducing...

That seems like a pretty big amount of CO2 you are emitting each month sellingrich. What are you going to do about it? Nothing? This is man-made greenhouse gases. What the atmosphere produces naturally is of no concern as the system is in balance through the forces of nature. When man steps in...

Critics don't understand this market or it's mechanics. Of course, new markets are opaque and fraught with cheating, corruption and growing pains. That said, carbon emissions worldwide are coming down as a direct response to the Kyoto Protocol and the Cap and Trade model for Carbon emissions...

There is a lot of interest both here and abroad for families and individuals to offset their personal carbon emissions and to do their part in the fight against global warming. I think it is a good business right now with lots of potential.

It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who...

Doesn't Alan Greenspan work for PIMCO now? Isn't that insulting to his colleague? Something must be going on behind the scenes.

``It's a sad testament to think the Fed has to cut interest rates eight days in front of a meeting to salvage the equity markets,'' said Gross, the founder and chief investment officer of Pacific Investment Management Co., in a Bloomberg Television interview. ``The U.S. economy is in a rather...

I want to make a trade and I haven't traded in a long time. I only invest in hedge funds these days so I don't even have live quotes anymore. My premise is that tomorrow will open up 50-60 off the IBM news, trade a little higher on some short covering, then turn down again as markets always try...
