According to your sources and link, the US is pissing away 338 billion on this hoaky BS. I would consider that participation.
You should have just said that you don’t understand what’s happening, or why. It would have saved you a few words.

Anyhow, try explaining why China spent $818 billion on ‘hokey BS’.
Let alone the additional billions other nations all over the world are increasingly spending on this "hokey" BS, Like Uruguay whose electricity is already 98% being produced by renewable, sustainable sources. I guess Whiskey thinks that the fossil fuel industry billionaires are all paragons of virtue who would never lie to us, and have only the best interests of the American people at heart!
No precept or claim is more suspect or more likely to be false than one that can only be supported by invoking the claim of Divine authority for it--no matter who or what claims such authority.

How can you continue to maintain that this is hoaky BS, when abundant evidence clearly shows that renewable energy now costs less than fossil fueled plants! Why do you blindly believe the billions of dollars worth of fossil fueled propaganda to "debunk" renewable energy sources? Do you see any other motivation for them doing that other than their own, selfish, self interest? Do really believe that the 97+% of scientists who confirm the reality of man caused climate change are all charlatans or incompetents? The RMI's data and research on this and the efficacy of their initiatives, like it or not, are very well documented and credible. They clearly know an awful lot more about this than you or I do!

Why are you so skeptical about this? Do you own a lot of stock in fossil fuel companies?

ETA: And yes, despite conservative opposition, there is still some participation by U.S. entities addressing these problems. I applaud that and hope to see more of it for our own economic and health sakes. I hope Trump doesn't succeed in stopping all of it!
See item 5, for example. Same old happy horse crap. Even when the science and technology are credible, there is always an underlying scam of filth. Item 5, carbon credits, is more than enough to cause pause.

So what? It is (or should be) expected that innovative programs should come under frequent review and adjusted to minimize deficiencies and improve their progress towards desirable goals. None of what you said invalidates the goals and purposes of RMI. And as you saw in the article, they are already taking steps to remedy the situation.

Uh huh. Yep. It sucks and we are improving it. In the meantime, let the sham and grift monetization continue. Its a credibility crisis.

Whiskey probably doesn’t realize that the biggest user of carbon credits in 2024 was Shell. A fossil fuels company.

It’s always interesting to watch you collapse when you run out of argument. : D

Actually, it is not interesting when you act like a bitchass lying (*) in every conversation. Try not being such a nuisance for once.

Is that statement about Shell and carbon credits wrong?
