Swedish agency agonises over SEK 10m carbon payment to Norwegian forestry firm

Business September 19, 2019

Already more than a year behind schedule, the Swedish Energy Agency continues to agonise over whether to issue its second carbon credit payment worth SEK 10 million for a tree farm in Uganda owned by the Norwegian forestry firm, Green Resources. The agency wants to ensure that its involvement improves the lives of people affected by the plantation, but an audit points to unresolved problems.
