People will fall for anything. Carbon Credits are one such.
In North Dakota if you do certain things in your farming practices you get carbon credit payments from corporations bullied by the global warming lobby into paying for some amount of pollution they generate. Farmers Union puts it on and by the way takes 10% of the take for their efforts. Money for nothing.
Here's a bit on that.
It's hush money. Guilt geld. It's also silly. Oh, you know of carbon credits. It's what Al Gore claims he bought when he was discovered to use as much energy as 10 other families combined. So he paid a bribe to the global warming mafia in the form of buying carbon credits. There's even a carbon credit card. I'm serious.
It's OK with me. It's real money. Bribes and extortion are real money. A farmer can get up to 2 dollars per acre in cash. I'm for that. That's like $320 per quarter. Pays for the gas in the pickup that gets 12 MPG which generates it's own greenhouse gas. Net zero.
It's just all so silly.
On the other hand, they do pay for planting trees and I'm for planting trees.
If you are a farmer in ND and you own land you should be in on this scam while the gettin's good. Someday we'll all wise up and realize what a sham it all really is.
Sam the Sham and the Pharaohs. Wooly Bully for ND farmers. Get in on the free money while it lasts.
