Carbon offsetting with TerraPass

[stuffy]

I also find it quite arrogant of humans to think that they can actually destroy the planet. The earth is capable to handling itself when need be.

i agree, the term "save the planet" should really be "save the humans"
we cant' do anything to destroy the planet, it will be here long after we are gone.

sounds about right.

I'm sure enough nuclear/atomic firepower in choice locations would tear it apart though... but someone would realllllly have to try.

Remember how old the earth is, we are an insignificant dot on earths timeline... if all of humanity wipes itself out, something else will take our place. IMO, if drastic things happen, humans will accept a different form of life and keep on chuggin... it would take quite a bit to wipe all of us out, but at the same time, quite a bit in a cosmic sense isn't even a whisper.

I toy with the idea of infinity, life itself, the makeup of the universe... etc etc... fun topic but it can be pretty mind bending... because it always comes back to WHY????

I'll not bend my mind/this topic any further, thats an OT type of thing

Getting back on topic, this not only seems moot, it seems to just buy into (no pun intended) the idea that you can buy your way out of anything... do the logistics of it *really* make sense?
