I told you, it's controlled by that giant burning thing in the sky.
Now, everybody, let's join in a circle hold hands and sway side to side in unison with a nice stanza of 'Kumbaya'. Gangstuz.

Relieving you of money is the only the reason behind the climate change blame game.
I tell you, that is so wonderful of them to relieve us of such a burden as that, they are so wonderful, doesn't it just kind of get you all choked up thinking of how selflessly that they look after us poor little trolls. My my, yes indeed they are our heaven sent guardian angels. What in the world would we ever do without them? I just know that they are planning some kind of virtual Utopia for all of us, where we will all be free and prosperous. :)

Damn, I hate carbon offset schemes! :soapbox:
