Carbon Credits preventing job creation in Ireland The average Iris person is presumed to create 17 tonnes of carbon a year. This is called our carbon footprint. Since the ratification of the Kyoto agreement by Ireland 2002 which seen quotas on carbon been produced,the value of the carbon credit has realised real wealth. The race to the bottom in the cheap energy sector has seen a panic to create the desirable carbon credit from clubhouses and organizations "carpooling" to reducing their carbon footprint and cashing in ,to larger multi corporates installing energy saving lighting. |

Jump To Comment: 1The atmosphere belongs to us all and not just big business so instead of the current system, they should give every person a carbon allowance rather than just giving one to corporations or businesses. These people could then reduce their footprint and sell their excess carbon allowance to companies thus bringing more money into the local economy from these companies and hence help to create employment there instead of just filling the coffers of rich investors and financiers yet again.
In other words let's socialise the broken cap n trade system and make it do something useful besides just lining the pockets of the rich.
