Adam Hart-Davis - a sort of cross between Johnny Morris and Magnus Pike - shills for big oil interest in the form of BP. Besides this irony we have Adam suggesting keeping pigs in enclosed areas ( not very animal-friendly ) and also burning methane to produce electricity, which I thought he would have been against. Either way, the greenie lefty agenda wants us buying and selling 'carbon credits', which a quick look reveals a haven for bureaucracy and corruption. You can just see the 'independent monitors' being bought off by bent people and corporations. The system won't work because it is DESIGNED not to work for us, only for big business.

This original investigative report by The Ecologist Film Unit and Link TV's Earth Focus -- which is now leading to calls for an overhaul of how the UN does business -- shows the consequences of incentive programs like the Clean Development Mechanism (CDM). A plant owned by India's energy giant Reliance Power is set to become the largest coal power project awarded carbon credits under the UN's Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) -- which lets industrialized countries offset their pollution by investing in greenhouse gas reducing projects in developing nations. This investigation shows what can, and does, go wrong. It documents the displacement of village communities to make way for plant construction; the exclusion of villagers from the decision making process; and the broken promises -- the benefits promised but never delivered to villagers like free education, employment and healthcare. Thousands of acres of forest land are being destroyed to make way for the plant. Critics say that the project sets a dangerous precedent because it shifts investment away from renewable energy and supports coal, an industry seen as a leading cause of carbon emissions. Campaigners are now calling for an urgent overhaul of the way the Clean Development Mechanism is governed.

This is a video of our proposed product - Carbon Absorber System (CAS) The Carbon Absorber System would absorb the CO2 emitted by flight below 3000ft during the Landing Take-Off Cycle (LTO), which has the potential to capture up to 33% of the CO2 emitted during flight. Carbon Absorber System acts as a sponge, soaking up carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. It uses resin as the carbon absorption mechanism. It is proposed that carbon dioxide capture technology is based on an anionic exchange resin that absorbs CO2 from the air when it is dry and release the captured CO2 when it is subjected to certain temperature (40°C) and high air humidity. This polymer-based resin that served as fixed cations are attached to the surface of the polymer, binds with CO2 when dry to bicarbonate as it saturates. When it is exposed to humid air, the resin will lose its' affinity with CO2 and release CO2 gas. ©teamAMS.

Voluntary Carbon Offsets--Getting What You Pay For (Part 2 of 2) - Part 1 is presently missing. - Select Committee on Energy Independence and Global Warming - 2007-07-18 - Eager to be part of the solution to global warming, many consumers, businesses and government agencies have turned to carbon pollution offsets to help reduce or eliminate their "carbon footprint." While these offsets represent a promising way to engage consumers in global warming solutions, there are many unanswered questions as to the efficacy and accounting of these unregulated commodities. On Wednesday, the Select Committee on Energy Independence and Global Warming will hold a hearing examining carbon offsets. Chairman Edward Markey (D-MA) will combine his extensive experience in consumer protection to explore the issues of transparency, effectiveness and other necessary questions to ensure carbon offsets can be a responsible way to address global warming on a consumer-based level. Witnesses: Derik Broekhoff, Senior Associate, World Resources Institute; Joseph Romm, Senior Fellow, Center for American Progress; Thomas Boucher, President and Chief Executive Officer, NativeEnergy LLC; Russ George, President and Chief Executive Officer, Planktos, Inc.; Eric Blatchford, CEO, TerraPass.

PSE's voluntary Carbon Balance Program helps natural gas customers reduce their carbon footprint by purchasing carbon offset blocks from local projects that work to reduce or capture greenhouse gases. While natural gas is the cleanest-burning fossil fuel, there are still greenhouse gas emissions associated with burning the gas, primarily carbon dioxide. The carbon offsets for PSE's Carbon Balance Program are sourced from a family farm located in Outlook, Wash., called George DeRuyter and Sons Dairy. PSE purchases the dairy's carbon offsets through the Bonneville Environmental Foundation on behalf of Carbon Balance Program participants. PSE works with BEF to make certain that carbon offsets purchased help fund new renewable energy or other emission reduction projects that would not otherwise happen. For more information, visit www.bef.org To participate, residential customers can purchase carbon offset blocks at $4 each, added to your monthly natural gas bill. One block is equivalent to removing 400 pounds of carbon dioxide from the environment. The average residential customer can make their natural gas carbon neutral for $8 a month. Commercial and industrial customers can also participate with a minimum purchase of two blocks, or $8 a month. Because natural gas usage varies greatly between individual commercial and industrial customers, PSE will work directly with these groups to help determine their annual gas usage, and the number of blocks needed to achieve a 100 <b>...</b>

The Rio Ceramics project has enabled three factories in Brazil to switch to renewable biomass as a fuel source, reducing global CO2 emissions between 12000 and 20000 tonnes each year. The transition has also benefit local communities by providing extra income and employment opportunities. Carbon finance has allowed the facilities to increase their contributions to local neighbourhoods, including a charity for disabled children, and a youth group that engages children through art and music.

The Most Meaningful Carbon Offset! Donate at www.solarcookerscarbonoffset.com It costs just $50 for Solar Cookers International to provide a solar CooKit to one of the neediest families on earth. Each Cookit includes essential training, a cooker, a cooking pot and a water indicator to tell when deadly microbes have been removed from drinking water. Solar cooking emits zero carbon, and it reduces the desperate need to continually gather and burn wood in deforested environments. It has been estimated that one solar cookit can reduce the emission of more than one ton of the most toxic, global-warming black carbon per year.

www.thecarbonrush.net Hundreds of hydroelectric dams in Panama. Incinerators burning garbage in India. Biogas extracted from palm oil in Honduras. Eucalyptus forests harvested for charcoal in Brazil. What do these projects have in common? They are all receiving carbon credits for offsetting pollution created somewhere else. But what impact are these offsets having? Are they actually reducing emissions? And what about the people and the communities where these projects have been set up? THE CARBON RUSH takes us around the world to meet the people most impacted. They are the least heard in the cacophony surrounding this emerging "green-gold" multi-billion dollar carbon industry. From indigenous rain forest dwellers having their way of life completely threatened, to dozens of Campesinos assassinated, to the livelihood of waste pickers at landfills taken away, THE CARBON RUSH travels across four continents and brings us up close to projects working through the United Nations, Kyoto Protocol designed Clean Development Mechanism. This groundbreaking documentary feature asks the fundamental questions "What happens when we manipulate markets to solve the climate crisis? Who stands to gain and who stands to suffer?"
