Yet again, Nupan has come under fire from bloggers and anonymous critics, claiming that Nupan is still doing something wrong.
If this is so, we welcome anyone to post a reply to this article, answering any of the following questions specifically.
Why is it wrong to fight for the rights of traditional landowners to decide not to log their beautiful tropical rain forests in favor of commercialized carbon trading?
Why is it wrong to attempt to get a commercialized carbon trading project up in PNG?
What is wrong in trying to get CCBA verification for a PDD for a Project?
What is wrong with trying to get a dual verified VCS PDD for a Project?
What is wrong with taking a huge commercial risk for some 6 years in an attempt to get the first dual verified VCS / CCBA carbon trading project up in PNG?
What is wrong with continually trying to find the right combination of Project supporters and marketers to enable the Project Proponents the indigenous people who own the land, and own the projects to sell their dual verified Voluntary Emission Reductions (or Voluntary Carbon Units) for the best commercial price available at the time?
REDD does not exists today. REDD may not exists for years. The rain forests are being attacked every day by rapacious loggers, who not only turn the rain forests into moonscapes, but threaten the traditional livelihood of the people who rely on the rain forests for their survival.
Right now, today, people are being killed in project areas because the process is taking too long, and the loggers are gaining confidence that it may never happen.
What is wrong with trying to save the rain forests of PNG?
When Nupan is successful, and manages to get a dual verified VCS / CCBA carbon trading project thorough the excruciating process that at times seems to be aimed at preventing this from ever happening, the people will get a revenue from carbon trading for the next 40 years it will literally change their life!
What is so wrong about this outcome?
Can you look the people of PNG in the eye, and tell them that they dont deserve this opportunity to change their prospects, save their rain forests, and give their children the best possible future that they can?
Can you?
Nupan cant, and thats why we will continue to fight
