Launched to tie-in with the United Nations Climate Change Summit in
Copenhagen (COP15), Dr Steffen Bohm and Siddhartha Dabhi's new
book, Upsetting the Offset: The Political Economy of Carbon
Markets, challenges the environmental claims made about carbon
markets and carbon offsetting schemes. The book - which collates
contributions from more than 30 leading experts - is another voice
in the growing criticism about the business of carbon and how it
has failed to deliver promised reductions in greenhouse gases. The
book contributes to a growing field of critics of carbon markets by
highlighting several up-to-date examples of where the system has
failed and often led to negative social, economic and environmental
impacts in deprived countries. http:
