Guyana has received positive responses from the Lowering Emissions by Accelerating Forest finance (LEAF) coalition on its proposal to retail its carbon credits to the world, Vice President Bharrat Jagdeo says.

In an exclusive interview with the Sunday Stabroek, Jagdeo said “We have made a proposal to them and [recently] they said our proposal has been successful and now we have to go and [work out] the specifics [and come to a] purchase agreement, so we are at that stage now.”
