    Australia’s carbon credits system a failure on global scale, study finds
    "Researchers find carbon offsets approach, which is supposed to regenerate scrubby outback forests, was not reducing emissions as promised."
    >>
    theguardian.com/environment/20

    Australian human-induced native forest regeneration carbon offset projects have limited impact on changes in woody vegetation cover and carbon removals (study)
    "Effective offset schemes require constant scrutiny and critical assessment, including from third parties. This cannot be provided without the public release of all information that is necessary for the proper evaluation of the performance and integrity of offset projects."
