Carbon Offsetting

[HeyWayne]

I know it's a contentious subject, but I thought this was kinda cool:

COCO - Make my mobile carbon neutral

[tootles]

Contentious - pah!
It's all a load of b***s, an excuse to tax and bleat.
I have yet to see or hear any even remotely convincing arguaments.
But do plant a tree if it makes you feel better!!!

I like the idea of calorie offsetting. If you eat a salad, you're allowed pudding!

And if you have lots of slithers of cake it dont count as one big bit!!

and if you buy sweeties by the quarter, in paper bags, they haven't got any calories in, cos it doesn't say anything on the bag

Which quarter is that, I've heard of cafe quarters is there a sweeties quarter?

So what are they made of saccarin, bleugh!!

If people want to spend money on carbon off-setting, they can buy me a wind turbine and photovoltic roof....I won't refuse.

How can I go about offsetting my methane levels, they certainly seem a little high at present.

oops, excuse me.

[Flummery]

Cut your pea and bean intake! (Or at least, open a window!)

actually i usually buy 4 quarters at a time, so i'm all sweet ........

noooooooo sweeties don't work with saccharin, they are like jam ..... they just haven't got any calories cos it doesn't say they do .....silly

tis true ........ kit kats never used to have calories either, but i guess they put a silly label on now so they have?

it also works with cakes and biccies from our market stall, they are well known brands with the boxes removed ...... therefore no calories and no wasted box

oh and did you know, special k has more sugar than frosties ...... therefore frosties must have less calories

So you buy a whole one?

I have chips with a salad, does that count as offsetting?

Chips and salad is DEFINITELY calorie offsetting!
