Sen. Bernie Sanderss (I-Vt.) 2020 presidential campaign plans to offset all carbon emissions from travel, it announced Thursday morning.
Bernie Sanders is a champion in the fight for climate justice and, like him, we know we need to address our emissions through action, not just rhetoric, campaign manager Faiz Shakir said in a statement. We are proud to lead the way in the fight against climate change by acting boldly to move our energy system away from fossil fuels and towards sustainable energy sources.
The campaign said it will partner with NativeEnergy, a Vermont-based carbon offsets provider, to invest in renewable energy projects to balance the emissions created by its automobile and air travel. The campaign also pledged to offset event venue and attendee-related emissions.

How does he heat his three mansions?
Good he can close his mouth.
so...can he use campaign funds to do it ? ...keep an eye out
Bat-shit crazy!
How in the world does he avoid gagging on all his virtue signaling?
This is the end of the old “Commie” Sanders.
What a f***ing joke these people are.
If we cannot get serious people in government and running for president, then lets just eliminate the entire damned thing.
We have a nation full to the brim of idiots and illegal aliens trying to figure out which f***ing joke to elect president.
Enough!
So is he giving up f@rting for Lent?
Climate justice? The climate is a group? These people are insane.
Will he use horse and buggy on the campaign trail?
I sure hope he doesn’t plan on FLYING anywhere.
Carbon Offset Provider?
Is that like a Perpetual Motion Machine?
I don’t know how either of them are supposed to work.
Is he going to plant trees?
Heard he just bought a few pterodactyls and some cars that run on feet. Dopes on parade
Is he and his staff going to put duct tape over their noses and mouths for long enough to do the offset?
And whst about all his other travel hes done the last 80+ years?
Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.

So the rich communists can buy indulgences. Does that really undo the “damage” from all the carbon dioxide his travel and that of thousands of campaigners, handler, rally attenders generate? What a scam. Sanders should use ALL his campaign funds to plant trees, buy bicycles, etc.
Make America great again and relegate carbon offset organizations to the dust bin of scam operations history and confiscating all their assets to provide supplemental funding for building the southern border wall and for domestic fossil fuel energy producers’ legal defenses.
Offset with other people’s money? He brave and noble.
Does that mean he will give up his Audi R8 V10?
