The strategy of buying and selling “carbon credits” can lead to a new form of speculation which would not help reduce the emission of polluting gases worldwide. This system seems to provide a quick and easy solution under the guise of a certain commitment to the environment, but in no way does it allow for the radical change which present circumstances require. Rather, it may simply become a ploy which permits maintaining the excessive consumption of some countries and sectors.

I agree 100% with Pope Francis on this. Carbon credits, like previous "environmental credits" systems, will be a high value scam which will do NOTHING to improve our environment.
The rotting capitalist system CANNOT fix itself. Criminal is criminal. The Mafia can to a certain extent POLICE itself, but it cannot change its own nature.
