Leonardo DiCaprio does it. George Clooney doesn’t. You can bet your paycheck that Bill Gates and Jeff Bezos do it, but fellow billionaires Mark Zuckerberg and Jim Walton don’t.
Lastly, John Kerry and Al Gore do it, but their fellow uber-rich politicos George W. Bush and Bill Clinton don’t.
So, what it the “It” that I speak of? Carbon credits.
That’s right. Despite all of the above personally responsible for pumping out a helluva lot more CO2 than the average citizen does, they can soothe their slightly hurt feelings by paying for a few trees to be planted. Either that or hooking some gizmo up to a cow’s poop-chute to capture methane.
Along the same lines, Team Biden is launching something called “The Welcome Corps”. Seriously.
For the low, low price of $2,275 (at a minimum), you and at least four of your closest amigos can (achem) “Sponsor” a singular refugee, er… I mean environmental transient, er… I mean illegal alien.
Private Sponsor Groups (PSGs) commit to providing welcoming services to arriving refugees for their first 90 days in the community. They secure and furnish initial housing, provide for initial basic needs, and make connections to relevant services, such as health care, education, and employment services. Most importantly, PSGs offer friendship and support to those adjusting to life in a new community.

This is used to secure and furnish housing and provide for the refugee’s initial basic needs, until they secure employment.
Personally, I don’t see many soy-boys nor FemiNazis falling over themselves to put in their bids at the selling block, but I sure do see the top (liberal) one percent “Sponsor” just enough to beef-up their screamingly leftie street cred.
