How many trees are killed in order to print the certificates that are sent to you when you buy carbon credits?
Answer:
Tress are adult life forms, they know what they are getting into.
What is tragic are all those baby bushes clubbed to death to create smart-alecky greeting cards.
trees can be planted, it's renewable resource..quit worrying about carbon offsets which the hypocrit Big Al Gore invented anlong with the internet
For one person or on all the Earth ? Though, I don't know both but for the entire planet, by using internet certificates, it saves about a millions trees I think (I don'T remember correctly, but around that..)
The ice-core data is frequently cited as principal evidence to argue that CO2 is the earth’s main climate driver. Rises in the CO2 level "closely corellate" to rises in temperature. It is the jewel in the crown of the theory of man made global warming. But the ice-core data does not show that CO2 drives climate. It shows, very clearly, that the opposite is true!! Variations in temperature precede rises in atmospheric CO2 by several hundred years. It's true they correllate, but with an inverse relationship to that inferred by the Global Warming quacks.
It's pretty funny how skeptics keep bringing up the fact that historically CO2 lagged temperature, because it's one of the proofs that this warming is not natural.
CO2 can act in two ways (this is very basic science). It can cause warming through the greenhouse effect, and it is released by warming, since warm ocean waters can hold less CO2.
Historically, warming happened for other reasons, usually the Sun, and then CO2 rose hundreds of years later as the ocean warmed. This time CO2 is going up simultaneously with temperature, proving that this warming is caused by CO2 from burning fossil fuels.

Paper is generally made from farmed trees, so its not a big deal.
