Intro to the Kyoto Protocol: When Carbon (CO2e) became Money

2005 when carbon became money How to create jobs, attract ﬁnanciers, bring additional Risk Reduction & Return on Investment, generate business and make money, alleviate poverty & the new role of the NGO’s thanks to the “Kyoto Protocol”, in the Carbon Restrained Economy by CarbonIsMoney.com by CarbonSymphony.org

Aim After this presentation, you’ll In nature, everything is • know what’s happening connected ... • know how to create jobs, attract financiers, develop business, earn money,... thanks to the Kyoto Protocol in your region & new role of NGO’s • who you need around the table land & water, air & soil • Q&R after 30’ north & south, east & west • and maybe even more... Speeddating/Next workshops OK ? by CarbonIsMoney.com by CarbonSymphony.org

What’s happening ? Trailer • We’re burning more fossil fuels, emit too many greenhouse gasses. More than the planet can absorb... • so ... OUR planet is heating up ... • The Kyoto Protocol since 2005 • Participating in projects that reduce Greenhouse gasses, earn “CO2- certificates” • Carbon Emission Reduction certificates = CER’s • 1 CER = ±15 € = 1 ton CO2e • CO2e= CO2 & equivalents (CH4,N2O, ...) • first world governments & companies HAVE to buy these CO2-certificates by CarbonIsMoney.com by CarbonSymphony.org

What’s happening ? • The Kyoto Protocol since 2005 opened up a whole new economy: • new for politicians/jurists • new managers & ﬁnanciers • new for Go’s & Ngo’s • new for Universities/Inventors • ... sociologists/engineers/... • Only 3.000 people know how to make money in this new Carbon Restrained Economy Turning point ... for the ﬁrst time in the worlds’ history ALL people have come together and share 1 common currency and the currency is called “CO2eq” by CarbonIsMoney.com by CarbonSymphony.org

What’s happening? • Losses due to 960 “natural catastrophies” in 2007 mounted to US$ 82bn (2006: US$ 50bn). Insured losses mounted to just about US$ 30bn, about the double of 2006. africasynergies@hotmail.com & Sven AERTS

How can you make money in this Carbon Friendly Economy ? • The amount of CO2e that is captured / not emitted / prevented thanks to the project ... will be obtained in CO2e-certificates • You plant a forest ... a forest stores CO2e. • The amount of CO2e that is captured ... you/the project will get it in CO2e-certificates • The financier needs the CO2e- certificates, so (co-)finances the project • Bottle-neck: teams that make business plans • Difficult ? Then why don’t we do it ? by CarbonIsMoney.com by CarbonSymphony.org

How can you make money in this Carbon Friendly Economy ? • Eco-lamps • CO2e Today, the electricity consumption is certiﬁcates e.g. 100 kWh/day you’re project • and the electricity is produced by gets burning coal/fuel/... resulting in this much CO2e-emissions • You change all light-bulbs in all public CO2e buildings (e.g. 1 million eco-lamps) production • ..so the electricity consumption drops to e.g. 20 kWh/day • ..so at the electricity company, they don’t have to burn an equivalent amount of coal/fuel • ..so an equivalent amount of CO2e is NOT emitted / prevented ... you/the project will get for every ton CO2e prevented 1 CO2e-certiﬁcate • which you can sell ... • so ...additional ROI & Risk Reduction by CarbonIsMoney.com by CarbonSymphony.org

Turning point • Investor can choose: invest e.g. 10.000.000 € in his own country and implement e.g. 10 windturbines with it • or invest that 10 million € in a developing country where they can put probably 20 windturbines (cheaper labor, more sun/wind/...) • hence generate more CO2e for the same amount invested • Conclusion: • there is a transfer of money, know-how and technologies from • ﬁrst world countries / non-sustainably developed societies to developing countries • Who wants to join us ? by CarbonIsMoney.com by CarbonSymphony.org

Turning point • People that still use oil/kerosene lamps can get this kit • Solar kit if paid for by • a. revenues from the sale of CO2e-certiﬁcates • b. grants for development aid • Turning point: nobody on the planet can get light / electricity = education, additional income, charge gsm, radio, ... • We look for ngo’s that can explain & obtain paper from 10.000 families where they state we can get the use of their roof to put these on AND help with the organistion of the project • Please contact lecturer by CarbonIsMoney.com by CarbonSymphony.org

The engagements of our Planet ... and the preliminary results ... • Morocco proﬁts from the occasion to put itself on the map: come with all your money ... come put wind-turbines, plant trees, build eco-houses with our job-less population, come install renewable energy installations : biogaz / wind-turbines / photovoltaics ... and enjoy your holidays in our beautiful country without corruption. by CarbonIsMoney.com by CarbonSymphony.org

Waste to Energy- What are CER-parks are parks where a combination of carefully selected sustainable technologies that interact with each other, transform Waste into Energy, whilst looking for synergies. W2E attract ﬁnanciers because they eliminate greenhouse gases & are good investments. Example of a complex project by CarbonIsMoney.com by CarbonSymphony.org

Thank you After this presentation, you’ll • know what’s happening In nature, everything is • know how to create jobs, attract connected ... financiers, develop business and earn money thanks to the Kyoto Protocol in your region • who you need around the table • Q&R after 30’ • Speeddating/Next workshops • this workshop comes with Lpa-standard land & water, air & soil documents for those who sign a MOU/ north & south, east & west Non Circumvention Agreement and maybe even more...
