The Natural Resources and Environment Ministry has introduced a pilot forest carbon credit trading scheme in Chanthaburi province.
Sirithan Pairojboriboon, director of the Greenhouse Gas Management Organisation, said a special committee comprising experts from the Forest and Marine and Coastal Resources departments have introduced the project, believed to be the first of its kind.
