Carbon Credits

European
Carbon Fund
The purpose of the ECF
is to finance the carbon component of environmentally friendly projects
and provide liquidity to the new European carbon market. The ECF
purchases, mainly project-based, carbon assets on a forward basis from
developing or transition countries, and therefore contributes to the
successful financing of such projects. These carbon assets will later
contribute to increase the liquidity on the EU ETS.
Initiated by two major
European banks (French Caisse des Dépôts [cf. http://www.ixis-cib.com/]
and Belgian/Dutch Fortis Bank) in
april 2005 and managed by IXIS Environnement & Infrastructures, ECF
successfully raised €142,5m from several investment-grade financial
institutions.

Powernext
Powernext
Carbon is a spot market of CO2 allowances. The market model is the result
of a three-fold partnership between Powernext, Caisse des Dépôts
and Euronext. Powernext
Carbon counts close to 40 active members. More than 4.5 Million tonnes of CO2 have been traded in 2005 (launch of the
market on 24 June). Powernext Carbon has made a
name for itself as the most liquid CO2 allowances spot market in Europe to date.

The Weather Risk Management
Association (WRMA), founded in 1999, is dedicated to advocating
issues affecting weather risk management, providing forums for discussion
and interaction among our members, supplying information to end-users,
and most importantly facilitating the growth of a vibrant industry. The
Weather Risk Management Association (WRMA) was developed to assist
companies in managing the extent to which their revenue is affected by
uncontrollable weather patterns. It is an industry that has thrived and
succeeded in presenting financial weather products as marketable and
economically productive assets to a company's profitability. The
financial benefit of managing weather risk is evident in the surge of
traders, brokers, insurers and government agencies that are eager
participants in the industry of risk management. WRMA has brought to the
forefront the significance of this industry and provides a standard of
operation and business practices in the form of Standardized

Biosaline
Agricultural Research

International Center for Biosaline Agriculture(ICBA) - ICBA's mission is to demonstrate the
value of saline water resources for the production of environmentally and
economically useful plants and to transfer the results to national
research services and communities in the Islamic World and elsewhere.
ICBA mandate is to develop sustainable management systems to irrigate
food and forage crops and ornamental plants with saline water and to
provide a resource of salt-tolerant plants for socio-economic development
in arid and semi-arid areas and salt-affected areas of the Islamic World
and elsewhere
|
|
Halophyte
Biotechnology Center - The
Mission
of this Center is: 1. To improve salt-tolerant crops for use in
salt-afflicted agroecosystems using
biotechnology. 2. To develop varieties of plants for saline wetlands
restoration that will drive high productivity ecosystems without
continual human input. 3. To disseminate knowledge about using
salt-tolerant plant varieties to develop sustainable agriculture in areas
of the world where soils are salinized or only
saline water is available for irrigation and to solve wetland restoration
problems. 4. To exchange information on the performance of varieties of
salt-tolerant plants under various types of agroecosystems
(ie. rainfed,
irrigated, tidal) and wetland restoration sites.
