  6. ”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.”

  7. @JohanEmpa I know you are a keen advocate of #carbonremoval, but I beg you walk the fine line between doing your best with what is available (aka #greenserver, #treeplanting) and promoting the belief that buying #greencredits or paying into #carbonoffsets will actually REMOVE carbon from the atmosphere. It wont'. #Additionality is barely alive, in fact I'd argue it's long dead. #reduceemissions first, aka #stopflying.
