For me his behaviour makes sense. I act in similar ways, as it shows that the person has higher moral standards than he can fulfil himself. He knows that his lifestyle is not according to his ideals, but to compensate this he funds initiatives that support those. Its basically carbon trading morality. And just because you can't live up to your own moral standards does not mean you see the point that these should be changed.
