”When our rewilding program started, many big corporations offered us huge amounts of money if we certified carbon credits. We consulted with communities. But our answer was that we don’t sell nature.”

Research: Australian human-induced native forest regeneration carbon offset projects have limited impact on changes in woody vegetation cover and carbon removals.

Poor integrity carbon offsets actually enables fossil fuel projects to increase emissions under current #SafeguardMechanism policy settings which allows unlimited offset credits to meet set targets.

@Rjdlandscapes sigh x2 … why is this so hard to understande/accept by many humans?? … coincidentally those in charge of big #Bussiness and #policymaking. We, as a collective of ppl, can pressure those in #power to change by choosing wiser solutions, being critical and outspoken abt mistakes such as #carbonoffsets. We must not let #consumism and #marketing rule over our lives. Let’s change our #mindset and search for a #sustainable way to be #happy. #stopCO2 #climatechange
