      100% - even as satire the cartoon in OP misses the mark. The only people I’ve seen paint carbon credits that way in the US tend to vote for the party of climate change denialism, so tend to be about as well informed and truthful as you’d expect. So it’s a pretty good zinger if the person reading it doesn’t actually know the intent behind carbon offsets.
