Carbon Neutral

Do you believe this house is? With all the evergreens that aren’t there anymore, I would have a hard time believing so.

Edwards also avoided how he holds himself to one standard but wants to hold businesses to another. As anchor Miles O’Brien put it: “One of the keys to your plan is the so-called cap plan which would institute, as it suggests, caps on the amount of carbon dioxide industry can put into the environment.”

But when it comes to Edwards’ own life, he doesn’t cap his carbon efforts, preferring instead carbon offsets. “We have committed to operate this house in a carbon-neutral way, which means in addition to using energy saving devices in the house itself, to the extent that doesn’t cover it, we’re going to purchase carbon credits on the market,” said Edwards.

Yes, John. I’m sure Al Gore’s little snake oiley scam could use business from people other than himself.

No wonder John Edwards is always blabbing on about Two Americas. There’s our America that he thinks should count carbons, and then there’s his America that engages in more carbon gluttony than small countries.
