Page "Deforestation" Paragraph 47

The new procedures to get amounts of wood are causing more harm to the economy and overpower the amount of money spent by people employed in logging.

According to a study, " in most areas studied, the various ventures that prompted deforestation rarely generated more than US $ 5 for every ton of carbon they released and frequently returned far less than US $ 1 ".

The price on the European market for an offset tied to a one-ton reduction in carbon is 23 euro ( about US $ 35 ).
