Letters to Mr Appleford


Australia is one of the many countries now signed onto the United Nations Collaborative Programme on Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation in Developing countries (REDD+). Contributions from the countries have agreed to contribute 3.5 Billion dollars (as confirmed by Penny Wong). I have asked Mr Appleford to provide the estimate of figures to be distributed to the Victorian state under this agreement.
I think it will be interesting to see how this money will be spent across the state, if provided at all...to be continued.
