Big Tech Bullshit

No clever or witty commentary from me on this, it’s some kind of bullsh*t that this is allowed to happen and is taken advantage of:

Bloomberg - Are you a robot?
“Companies are buying credits called unbundled renewable energy certificates (RECs) that can make it seem that power consumed from a coal plant came from a solar farm instead. Amazon, Microsoft and Meta rely on millions of unbundled RECs each year to claim emission reductions when making voluntary disclosures to CDP, a nonprofit that runs a global environmental reporting system.”

Fair play at least to Google for phasing out the use of RECs.
