That is economic today for people who rent out the credits that arise by purchasing land then not harvesting the trees. That is economic today for people who claim carbon credits for purchasing new equipment, where the old was at EOL anyway. And so on. The existence of brokers for carbon credit sales should tell you something. For real economic viability that isn't scam-based, something based in reality is needed.

You're talking about carbon credits, not a carbon tax.

I've noticed a trend of people trying to suggest we already have a carbon tax via carbon credits.
I'm not sure if they're just confused, or trying to sow misinformation.
