Not every CO2 "storage" is as stable as another one.

The way CO2 output is "negated" is usually with poor, short term storage, that won't actually help for climate change, in exchange for extracting extremely stable CO2 sources like petrol or coal

I’m not arguing that offsets are “okay” but they are what I have always understood the term “carbon neutral” to mean. I don’t think very many people understood what I wrote 🤷‍♂️
