Carbon offsets are, and always have been, a complete and utter con, designed to permit business as usual and free-market capitalism in the fast lane

🤔What do fossil fuels have to do with your food?
🛢️From farm to fork, our food system is hooked on #fossilfuels, using 15% of fossil fuels.
Yet food is left out of the #climate conversation.
Our latest report exposes this major blind spot and how to address it👇
