However I believe there are major issues with any system of carbon credits. Overseas experience suggests these credits are exaggerated and difficult to verify. Sometimes they embody a growth assumption such as new clean energy displacing existing coal use..don't think so. In the case of tree planting we should do it for other reasons like aesthetics, harvest, soil strengthening and so on. Not because some sharp financial operator will pay us a pittance.
