The CDM
The Clean Development Mechanism or CDM of the Kyoto Protocol allows developed countries to sponsor projects in developing countries that would not otherwise go ahead (so called business as usual) and receive credits called Certified Emissions Reductions or CER from these projects representing the emissions avoided.
CER are admitted to all the main emissions trading schemes including the EUETS and NZETS.
