Abstract/Summary

Carbon offsets either remove greenhouse gases from the air or prevent emissions thereof. They face questions both economic (is ‘net zero’ really reached?) and moral. I defend the moral permissibility of off- sets. They likely shift climate harms around, but that need not be unjust— and in any case we cannot avoid doing that.
