There's a program in germany where drivers of electric cars can sell their carbon offset, no such option however exists for not using a car and I think that's pretty much the whole thing in a nutshell
I mean, yeah, pretty much. The Federal Enviromental Agency cites that every car is subsidized by about 5000€ a year on average via costs that drivers don't have to pay. Basically if you don't have a car a good chunk of your taxes go to somebody else for having one

Wow. This comment just makes me realise that 'carbon offsets' are the modern equivalent of buying indulgences 500 years ago.
Probably rather tax you for not having a car
