AlGore paying for new green power misses the point that the planet is supposed to be dying. We need to reduce coal. similarly, letting Ford keep polluting because other companies are doing better and better doesn't take advantage of the "benefits"* of the legislation. I get what you're saying about still lowering the average, but the goal should be to correct the problem. What part of the goal is met by letting ford ignore the law? Tell Ford to get with it, or close down.
