@activistPnk @GreyShuck I am waiting to see the results of the next experiment here. On Monday, we’re getting a new high speed bus in its own bus lane that controls the traffic lights all along its route to have priority over cars. How the drivers react should be interesting.
@KISSmyOS @rickdg if realistic, that would offset on average 1 ton of co2e, so at that rate it would only cost $150 per year per person in the US to render the US carbon neutral.
You know, if the deal on offer from politicians was “pay $150 a year and we’ll stop climate change in its tracks” I’d go for it in a heartbeat.
Why do I suspect it costs rather more than $10 to *really* offset 1T of CO2e? :blobcatsadpats:
