All Hybrids are are very expensive Carbon Credits.
Carbon offsets or credits are the biggest bunch of BS since the Nigerian money email. All they are is something that makes some rich person feel better for their continued bad habits. At least someone driving a hybrid in the city is contributing to better air quality.
