Haitian Senate president Kely Bastien and environmental innovators
ECCO2 Corp (www.ecco2usa.com (http://www.ecco2usa.com/) ) have entered
into talks regarding the launch of the "ECCO2 Haiti Project" in
efforts to reduce carbon emissions and stimulate the Haitian economy
following the catastrophic earthquake earlier this year. This clean
development mechanism (CDM) will be achieved by installing ECCO2's
patented technologies within all 133 communes that make up the nation.
Senate president Bastien says, "We are happy to open discussions of
economic development for the ECCO2 Haiti Project and getting the
operation active. The ECCO2 Haiti Project can serve as an example for
the rest of the world in the fight against global warming."
The Republic of Haiti has been a member of the Kyoto Protocol since
2005 and currently has an estimated national carbon footprint of 10
million metric tons per year according to current statistics. The
ECCO2 Haiti Project is expected to offset as much as 80 million metric
tons of carbon emissions over the next 10 years. The carbon emission
offsets will generate certified emission reduction (CER) credits
holding a current value of about $1.5 billion dollars (USD). The
carbon credits will be sold to various trading firms and investment
banks to finance the ECCO2 Haiti Foundation; a not-for-profit
organization whose primary focus is to further economic development in
Haiti using environmental initiatives as its catalyst.
President of ECCO2 Corp, Cary Lee Peterson, comments, "The ECCO2 Haiti
Project opens up vast employment opportunities and potential economic
growth as Haiti continues to restore its infrastructure. While many
have turned a blind eye towards them since the disaster, we are
honored to be an active part of rebuilding the new Haiti."
Although final details of the ECCO2 Haiti Project are still in
discussions, Haitian Prime Minister Jean-Max Bellerive and ECCO2 Corp
are set to complete negotiations within the next few weeks to launch
the program.
