EU-Ministers Propose Yet Another Loophole in EU CO2-Emission Reduction Market
23-12-2003 21:02
A majority of EU-ministers spoke out last weekend on the 2005 European emission reduction market, advocating an unlimited use of climate projects abroad by private companies. Then it will be much cheaper to comply with the Kyoto reduction-targets in Europe; by linking these projects with the EU-trading regime, the price of reducing emissions falls sharply. Real solutions are being postponed and the dependence on the fossil fuel economy will be broadened. Earlier at the Climate Conference in Milan, the UN agreed on using genetically modified trees to "absorb" greenhousegasses and accordingly to produce tradeable "carbon credits".ECUADORIAN GOVERNMENT ADOPTS ‘NEW’ OIL POLICY TO EXPAND DRILLING IN THE AMAZON R
