Just “ticking boxes”?

The video clip is something else with Councillor Dan McLean essentially admitting that he gamed the system on a bid submission for the 2010 Olympics for providing golf carts and utility vehicles |
CBC just had an article that was along these lines (at a much larger scale). Climate programs being used to fund seemingly non climate related projects so long as they can find some tangent so they can 'tick a box'. Not trying to defend the councilor but it really highlights why alot of people are opposed to these programs, not because they dont believe social changes are needed or things need to be done to lower humans atmospheric carbon footprint but because bureaucratic programs are rife of this BS 'box ticking' that have no enforcement, no set standards, and thus no actual gains in the areas that these programs are trying to improve.
It becomes a means for people (typically corporations or the wealthy class) to game the tax payer.
