The Clean Lie We Were All Told

 


The Clean Lie We Were All Told

We were told that if we kept living the same way, it was okay—as long as we “balanced it out.” Fly here, buy that, build more, burn more… and somewhere else, something would fix it. A tree would be planted. A number would cancel another number. We were told the planet would be fine. That story felt comforting. But it never felt honest.


The Carbon Illusion starts with a simple question: if carbon neutrality works, why do things keep getting worse? This book isn’t about blaming people or shaming choices. It’s about looking closely at what actually changes the world—and what only changes the paperwork. It explains how carbon offsets often make us feel better without making the air cleaner.


This book is written for regular people. You don’t need a science degree. You don’t need to be an activist. You just need curiosity. The Carbon Illusion breaks down big ideas in plain language and shows why real environmental progress comes from reducing harm, not covering it up later.


This isn’t a book about fear. It’s about clarity. About stopping the clean lie and starting real change. If you’ve ever felt confused, skeptical, or quietly uncomfortable with “green” promises that sound too easy—this book was written for you.
