Ya know what would also limit it: Actually stopping like the top 5 companies causing like 60% of all pollution.
Just stop doing carbon credits because it’s a literal scam and just shut down any factory that pollutes more than an allowed amount until they get it under control.
That seems to put the carbon produced on the buyer of a product, not the company that produced the item. It mentions electricity as one and its not like you choose how your electricity is generated. Others being land use and food production which again you can’t control because large corporations do that, not individuals.

You heard him, @FluffyPotato@lemm.ee, it’s been debunked somewhere 🤣
No, it literally hasn’t.
That article doesn’t back up your claim at all. It talks about an industry.

Also, GHG metrics by volume distort the picture when CO2, by volume, is like 25x less potent than methane
