INDEXING CDM DISTRBUTION: LEVELING THE PLAYING FIELD
The equitable distribution of Clean Development Mechanism projects has been a key concern since the inception of the mechanism through the Kyoto Protocol in 1997. Smaller and less developed developing countries have indeed been slow to pick up pace in applying the mechanism, but since the launch of the Nairobi Framework things have changed considerably. This article documents that if the traditional analysis of pure numbers of projects per country is replaced by more relative figures, there is in fact an increasing leveling of the employment of the mechanism. In fact it is becoming remarkably equal, even in Least Developed Countries.
