The organisation says its doesn’t claim to have accounted for every forest carbon transaction but has surveyed widely in the market. Looking to the future, the study says there is uncertainty over the growth path ahead as participants await political developments that could see vast new markets emerge dwarfing anything up to now. And of that 20-year total volume, 14 million tonnes were transacted in the two and half years from 2007 to mid-2009. Download State of the Forest Carbon Markets 2009
