    Maybe we could try ‘carbon keeping’ or ‘carbon never releasing’ where we keep the carbon that is currently buried underground buried underground instead of digging it up and releasing it into the atmosphere. I will try to come up with a flashier name.

      I think a better idea would be to start selling carbon futures based on subprime coal mine loans. Create a big fraud bubble where a bunch of coal is supposed to exist mined out of the ground that doesn’t.

      Operation Carbon Cloud we can call it.

        Okay I was skeptical until I got to the name but now I’m fully on board and ready to invest some negative numbers. Can we call our ‘novel debt vehicle’ Carbon Collateralization?

        “Operation Carbon Cloud harnesses the power of carbon collateralization to allow shrewd investors to leverage natural carbon capture into HUGE negative numbers.”
