I don't blame the reporter for mis informing the world on the reed+ project in the Luangwa valley of Zambia. The forum isn't enough for me to argue and debate what the reporter wrote. It's just unfortunate that this report is so negative. Regards. Senior Chief Luembe of Nyimba in Eastern Zambia.
As always, there is on-going fudging in the carbon-credits business in every possible way, including lack of funding of local peoples and projects.
But with oxygen rather than carbon pricing, whether or not a project area has additionality or not is irrelevant - if the biosystem is intact, they could get real payments for the oxygen produced and the source of those funds is from the rich North as they pay for oxygen removed from the atmosphere. And even better, all this can go on without a polluting corporation receiving any indulgences! Obviously, too simple to consider!

Thanks for this comment. Could you please explain why you think the reporter is misinforming the world about the Luangwa Community Forests Project.
Great reporting, thank you!
