Global CDM market is all set to double in 2010, says new study

The global Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) is set to look up. The Certified Emission Reduction (CERs) credits issued under CDM would double by 2010, says new research by IDEAcarbon, a carbon rating agency. CERs are issued by the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) to projects in developing counties for reducing the emission of planet warming greenhouse gases (GHG). Reduction of one tonne of carbon dioxide per year earns one CER.
