CARBON TRADING:A carbon trading tree planting scheme in Kenya could pave way for turnaround in the rate of destruction of forests.The project in agreement with the World Bank\'s BioCarbon Fund could finaly sell 375,000tons of carbondioxide equivalent emission reductions by 2017.At present carbon traders face an uncertain future and low prices because of lack of a new global climatechange agreement.Maintaining forests is the main way Africa can contribute to climatechange mitigation and participate in the carbon market.
