for - post - LinkedIn - Glenn - post - LinkedIn- Carbon Credits - ecological prostitution - metaphor - carbon credits - obese people - quote - carbon credits like obese people overconsuming without feeling guilty - Offsetting with carbon credits is morally equivalent to - obese people hiring someone else to go on a diet for them or even - demanding that people in countries suffering from food-insecurity reduce their food intake - so that obese people can continue to overconsume without feeling guilty. - It resembles the colonial hoax of “paying” the poor to clean up the mess they cause.- Glenn Sankatsing
