Group are traveling in various cities throughout the US
and Canada in January, February, and March 2008 to
share experiences of the failures of carbon trading in
Europe, India, Brazil, Uganda and elsewhere, and to
learn more about U.S. carbon trading plans and climate
politics.

Carbon Sink crisis: Uptake of CO2 by North Atlantic Ocean slows

Further evidence for the decline of the oceans' historical role as an important sink for atmospheric carbon dioxide is supplied by new research by environmental scientists from the University of East Anglia.

Since the industrial revolution, much of the CO2 we have released into the atmosphere has been taken up by the world’s oceans which act as a strong ‘sink’ for the emissions.

This has slowed climate change. Without this uptake, CO2 levels would have risen much faster and the climate would be warming more rapidly.
