will earth hour, or jetstar, really do anything?

i come in with this type of thinking after having seen an advert this morning for jetstar. it was the typical shot of someone happy and in mid jump - however the slogan over the top was something about offsetting carbon emissions. i am clearly not an expert in this field but from what i understand it is about offloading your amount of emissions, in a financial way, to another company that doesn't let off as many.
now there hasn't been any technology released that puts a huge muffler on air planes to stop the amount of smoke coming out of the back of them, so the fact remains the same that they are still putting out as much as they always have. it doesn't matter if you are selling these toxins to some one else to make you feel better at night, the fact remains the same that there is still massive amounts of shit coming out the back of air planes!!
so how does this advert warrant any kind of celebration again? oh, that's right. it doesn't.
