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.
Tobacco companies are selling and advertising vapes for children. Do you think children should just stop smoking or should they not be allowed to do that?

These companies are producing products you consume. What would really limit the emissions is reducing the human population to under 1B worldwide.
This has already been debunked elsewhere in the comments

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

If there were no buyers, there would be no producers. It is always on buyers.
And yet it’s easy to stop the production while it’s nearly impossible to stop the consumption.
Lol what?
It’s nearly impossible to remove people buying something while it’s very easy to stop a company from producing something.
Lol what? Do you even understand that a company only produces something because people are buying that thing?
