Last Week Tonight Last Night

If you didn't see Last Week Tonight with Jon Oliver last night, his Main Story was on carbon offsets -- how they often don't accomplish anything that companies hope they will...or hope you think they will.  It's a very good and often funny report. 

I did have to pause the TV and rewind a couple of times to understand the point he explains too quickly for my ears about how sometimes when a company uses carbon offsets it's actually making the problem worse.  But I eventually got what he was saying.  It doesn't seem to be something that happens very often, but the fact that it happens at all goes to the issue that carbon offsets aren't always what you hope they are.
