It's not possible for anyone to offset CO2 because that's just not how CO2 works. If its going into the air it doesn't matter how much money moves around in the background, it's still going into the air. Carbon offsets were never going to accomplish anything because physics don't work that way
You could create a chemical reaction that transform it to carbon and O2?
I mean sure, but that's not what carbon offsets are doing
