I was making a reservation for a rental car this morning, and I noticed something curious right next to the “reserve now” button on the screen. Just above it, there was a link to Go Green! by adding “emissions offset” to your reservation for the low, low price of $1.25 per day.
Sure it’s only $1.25 per day, but really? Where is that money going?
I’ll reduce, reuse and recycle for the rest of my life, but you’ll be prying carbon/emissions offset money (tax?) from my cold, dead hands.
