Protecting rainforests with Cool Earth Action - Keeping carbon where it belongs
Cool Earth Founder Prepares Global Plan to Save Rainforests
A plan to protect the world's rainforests has been proposed in a report prepared for Gordon Brown. The plan is part of a major review of deforestation and green energy led by Johan Eliasch, the Chairman of HEAD - the
sports equipment giant - and founder of Cool Earth Action.
The basic principle proposed in the plan is that money allocated for carbon saving in developed countries should be transferred to nations with rainforests in need of protection.
Details of the plan should be made public on Tuesday 14th October 2008.
