Carbon Dioxide Removal. A BIG loophole for business

Carbon Audits and carbon taxes are coming. And big business knows it. Some are responding by investing heavily in genuine reductions to their carbon footprint. Others are banking on throwing money at carbon offset schemes like large scale reforestation to enable them to carry on business as usual. But with limited suitable land available, that may prove to be a very dangerous gamble indeed!
