Paying up to cut emissions

Investment in funds that buy greenhouse gas emission credits is soaring. Christopher Cundy asks managers where the money is coming from and where it's going:

"To meet this rising tide of carbon investment, the flow of carbon credits is growing, according to Mark Bell head of Carbon Markets at London-based boutique merchant bank Climate Change Capital, which manages $1billion carbon fund. 'With 2012 coming, people were expecting credits to dry up. But that's not happening. Supply is growing on a steady basis and new players are coming into the market' he says."
