Australia Releases Rules for Carbon Credits from Culling Camels ("Kill a Camel for a Carbon Credit!")

Australia Releases Rules for Carbon Credits from Culling Camels

I wonder what the environmentalists and the animal-lovers think about this program that is essentially a "Kill a Camel, Get a Carbon Credit" program.

Killing camels to earn carbon credits might seem an extreme way to fight climate change, but the Australian government on Thursday issued detailed rules that will help investors do just that.

Northwest Carbon developed the rules for this camel-cull program under Australia's Carbon Farming Initiative.
