From v bahis on Fictitious commodities: the forest carbon market in PNG
Thank you for sharing this piece on the complexities of carbon credit projects in PNG. It's quite alarming to see how the supposed benefits of these projects rarely reach the local landowners. The investigation highlights critical oversights and the urgent need for more transparency and accountability in such environmental initiatives. It's essential that local communities are genuinely involved and benefit from projects affecting their lands.

Papua New Guinea especially up in the Highlands have huge rainforests and it's a better place for carbon deposits. I'm interested in facilitating the registration of rainforest in Highlands of Papua New Guinea.

From Ingvar Anda on Global aid 2023: comparing apples with apples
Good analysis of the structural decline of the Australian aid program, thank you. Somewhat ironic that this research was funded by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation (a philanthropic foundation run on the funds provided by 2 individuals) whose global funding in recent years is around double that of the entire Australian aid program.
