Vice President Bharrat Jagdeo has said that while the government is currently reviewing proposals to market Guyana’s carbon credits, those would only go on sale after the completion of the Low Carbon Development Strategy (LCDS) 2030.
Jagdeo made the statement during a recent press conference.
Guyana alone stores about 19.5 billion tonnes of carbon in its forests which is estimated to be valued at US$40 billion to US$54 billion annually.
