This is way too funny, and by now, you should know the drill concerning potables, combustibles, and sharp objects. You've been warned!
A website has surfaced that is “on a mission to take away every one of Al Gore's meaningless carbon credits by simply providing carbon debits.”
Called “Carbon Credit Killers” (h/t Glenn Reynolds), the proprietors “run a burgeoning business of clearing trees from grasslands so the Antelope won’t be scared.”
Their Deluxe Package includes:
- Kill (Shred) 1 Living Tree (see pictures of this being done)
- Send an email to Al Gore about your civic mindedness in buying Carbon Debits.
- Send an email to you certifying you are doing your part to save the Earth from Carbon Credits.
- 1 shirt of your choice (specify style and size in notes at check-out).
- Pictures of the Tree with Your Plaque both Before and After it has been shredded
- And we will send you the plaque with a commemorative piece of the tree attached.
In reality, I have no idea whether this is serious, or just a brilliant way to sell t-shirts and marketing material.
Regardless, I can’t stop laughing.
