SinksWatch

Info:  Is an initiative of the World Rainforest Movement, hosted by the WRM's Northern Support Office and implemented by FERN. The aim of SinksWatch is to track and scrutinize carbon sequestration projects related to the Kyoto Protocol, and to highlight their threats to forests and other ecosystems, to forest peoples as well as to the climate.

The focus of SinksWatch is on tree plantation sinks projects, particularly in areas where land tenure and land use rights are in dispute. That said, to understand fully the flaws of carbon offset schemes involving tree planting they also provide analysis showing why carbon offsets generally are a dangerous distraction from the task at hand -- drastically and swiftly reducing fossil fuel emissions.

SinksWatch advocates addressing the links between forests and climate change in a way that honours forests as a safeguard against the impacts of extreme weather events without justifying the continued, additional and permanent release of carbon from fossil fuel burning.
