    The Audi W12 is 6.3 liters.

    But that doesn't prove that particular Audi had the W12

    That is correct. It's a petrol engine.

    Only if it isn't one of the two diesel engines that are available on the A8.

    That is also correct, the W12, 6.3L petrol develops 500 bhp

    The car is rated at 16mpg *combined* in the EPA driving cycle.

    Not that I think carbon is a problem, but WHO gets the money and where does it
    go and WHAT does it "help", and tell us EXACTLY how carbon offsets keep Kerry's, DeCrapio's and Swift's jets from spewing any less CO².

    Wow, loser.

    You are spectacularly ignorant.

    If I do some activity that adds CO2 to the atmosphere...

    ...but I then do something to remove at least as much CO2 from the atmosphere...

    ...then I have "offset" the C02 that would have been added.


    You can't... you won't and you'll probably just end up asking another off-topic
    non sequitur, so go suck cock, dick-tucker.

    You might as well just say "I'm a loser", loser.


    The whole point, dick-licker... is the elites telling us to cut back, because EVERY molecule of CO² is killing us(it's not... it's actually making things BETTER for all of us), but they just keep onnnn flying around, spewing JUST as
    much CO² as if "carbon offsets" were never "invented" to rob from the poor to
    give to the rich.

    Sorry, but carbon offsets really do exist.


    You've apparently never heard that they do not "work" to DO anything, but make
    the elite richer.

    Example: "Some of these projects plant trees. Others simply PAY THOSE WHO OWN TREES not to cut them down."

    You put that in quotes like you are...

    ...quoting a source, loser.

    So let's see the source.


    "Think I'll go cut a tree down."

    "NOOOOO... we'll pay you not to!"

    Free money.

    If carbon offsets work so well, HOW did we have a warmer than normal 2023? I mean, they've been in place HOW long now? With lees CO² in the atmosphere, shouldn't the temps have gone down by now?

    Why do you imagine that everything is so black and white, loser.

    Oh, wait: it's because you're not actually very bright.


    "In the absence of adequate regulation limiting climate-warming emissions in affluent countries, personalized offsets of this nature have become big business."

    It's ALL about the money. Offsets is a scam and don't "work".

    A claim.

    Let's see your support for that claim.


    "Carbon offsets are traded in marketplaces like US-based Xpansiv, which offer real-time prices for different kinds of offsets - or, as they call them, "fungible environmental products." These marketplaces facilitated the movement
    of 500 million metric tons of financialized carbon in 2021. Carbon is becoming
    high finance, with the likes of Xpansiv and Ecologi potentially set to become the Bloombergs and Wells Fargos of the climate economy - if financial industry
    incumbents don't crowd them out first."

    And in case your puny little brain thinks I got that from a "Conservative site"? Think again. You know how to search... DO IT!

    Nope. Not my job find your sources, loser.


    Planting trees of paying those not to cut them down, is NOT doing a fucking thing, but making the rich elites feel better about POLLUTING the air!

    LOL... none of that pollutes OR makes it warmer. The elites just don't want the
    far left wingers to come down on them for spewing their jet exhaust.

    Paying offsets is just a way to not have to feel guilty of have to deal with the freaks who think CO² does anything other than green and grow better and more crops.

    CO2 traps heat that would otherwise be re-radiated into space, loser.

    That's just a fact.

    Liberal "logic" is circular logic, which is the worst kind.

    Nobody believes that. Climate change deniers and rightists in general *claim* it, but
    it's not true.

    But don't think your hypocrisy won't go unnoticed. How many things have Republicans
    fought because they, "aren't perfect?"

    Swill

    Climate change is real and has been real since the beginning of time.
    The scam is in believing mankind can do anything about it.
    At least with current technology.

    (pothead... feel free to reply to this, since chicken shit Chicken Little has my nym blocked. I could change my nym, but then I'd be a psychotic, like Rudy)

    To swill:

    Why fuck with mother nature and end up fucking the world over and possibly making it worse than it is now, which, by the way, is NOT that bad? The Earth has ALWAYS been a violent place, both geologically AND climatologically speaking.

    By simply looking into the past, we ALREADY know what's going to happen. Climate cycles are usually identical and repeat themselves over and over again.

    https://i.imgur.com/YHQ8xS4.png

    We do NOT know what will happen if we start fucking with nature. One example being, mylar sheets that are tinted. Unless you have 100% coverage of Earth, ALL AT ONCE, you change the atmosphere's dynamic, and when you do that, who fucking KNOWS what will happen?

    Even IF we could shield ourselves and the atmosphere from the effects of the sun evenly, we do NOT know what could happen in the years while construction is
    ongoing, and then, into the subsequent years after completion.

    "Whenever We Mess With Nature, Bad Things Happen" - Peter Warski

    IF you believe we've changed the climate by burning carbon-based fuels, don't you think we could REALLY fuck it up by trying to reverse that? I do, and only
    a fool wouldn't think so.

    Half the world could be plunged into another Ice Age, which is VERY likely to happen if the Earth suddenly loses what sunlight it already has and is "used" to.

    The other half could be plunged into the 1930s, or worse... the 1300s, the 1600s, or whatever century produced the most droughts, famines and fires, which
    HAS happened in the past. (see below)

    Does swill REALLY want to experiment with Earth? The earth's fine... the people... not so much. Stop pissing and moaning and whining about what we shouldn't "stop". Live your life... not everyone else's. We'll be fine. Maybe.

    1) Russian Drought and Famine of 1601--03 Killing one-third of
    the population.

    2) India... Deccan drought and Famine of 1630 -- 32 An estimated
    two million perished.

    3) Chinese Drought and Famine of 1907 In a matter of months an
    estimated 24 million people were killed. (California
    drought... HA, he said sarcastically)

    4) India Drought and Famine: Took place between 1896 and 1902,
    claiming an estimated 19 million lives.

    5) Bengal Drought and Famine of 1770 An estimated 15 million
    perished in the Drought and Famine

    6) Northern Chinese Drought and Famine Lasted from 1876 to 1879
    and is believed to have killed 13 million people.

    7) Indian Great Drought and Famine of 1876--78 This tragedy
    that took the lives of as many as 10.3 million.

    8) Russian Drought and Famine of 1921 It killed as many as 10
    million.

    9) Soviet Drought and Famine of 1932--33 Between seven and 10
    million were killed

    10) Great European Drought and Famine Creating the worst Drought
    and Famine ever seen in Europe, the Great Drought and Famine
    of 1315-1317, also known as the Great European Drought and
    Famine, was actually a series of crises. The tragedy, that
    killed an estimated 7.5 million people, was caused by
    strange weather and unrelenting rains.

    11) Bengal Drought and Famine of 1943 Killed between 1.4 and 4
    million people

    12) Chinese Drought and Famine of 1928--30 Killed an estimated
    three million people over the three-year span.

    13) Chinese Drought 1941 An estimated three million perished.

    14) Vietnamese Drought and Famine of 1945 Overall, between
    400,000 and two million perished as a result.

    15) Bangladesh Drought and Famine of 1974 Estimates state
    between 26,000 and one million perished in the disaster.

    16) 1984--85 Drought and Famine in Ethiopia Killed an estimated
    one million people in the region.

    17) Horn of Africa Drought and Famine Over one million
    reportedly died during that time in the areas of Ethiopia,
    Sudan and Somalia.

    18) Finnish Drought and Famine of 1866--68 Killed between 15 and
    20 percent of the population in the area or roughly 150,000
    people.

    19) Great Irish Drought and Famine One million in fatalities and
    another one million in residents who emigrated as a result.


    Personally I believe climate change is real but that it is just part of nature and at least with
    the current technology and science mankind can do little to nothing to influence it.

    Jumping on these green bandwagons is a huge mistake.
