Reminder - Deadline renewal of crediting period
The CDM Executive Board at its 100th meeting decided (EB 100 meeting report, paragraph 32) to revise the process for renewal of crediting period, introducing a deadline for the submission of a request for renewal of crediting period (i.e. one year after the expiry of the crediting period). Missing the deadline would make the requesting for renewal not possible. more >>

Warning - Exercise caution, undertake due diligence
The secretariat of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, the Kyoto Protocol and the Paris Agreement (the “UNFCCC”), has been made aware of activities in respect of which the UNFCCC makes the following clarifications:
The Clean Development Mechanism Executive Board (CDM EB) has established committees, panels or working groups, as per need, to assist it in the performance of its functions. Various individuals are appointed to serve on panels and rosters, or appointed to serve on teams as experts.
All organizations should exercise appropriate caution and undertake adequate due diligence when dealing with or engaging in business with individuals claiming affiliation to or specific status with respect to the UNFCCC and the CDM.
The rules relating to the CDM, including those relating to entities that can engage in the CDM can be found at CDM Rules and Reference and About the CDM at cdm.unfccc.int. For further information, if approached by someone claiming to be a CDM expert, the UNFCCC can be contacted at cdm-info@unfccc.int.
With regard to a Mr./Dr. Dubi Spiegler/Shpigler: The UNFCCC states and underlines that this individual is in no way affiliated with or related to the UNFCCC and is not an “authorized representative” or any sort of “special expert” of the UNFCCC. The UNFCCC has not authorized this individual to use the logo or name of the UNFCCC. The UNFCCC has repeatedly requested this individual to cease claiming affiliation to the UNFCCC and to refrain from using the logo or name of the UNFCCC.
This communication is without prejudice to the privileges and immunities of the United Nations and the UNFCCC secretariat.

- The benefits of CDM
CDM projects can help local communities in Africa by providing opportunities for sustainable development, creating employment or increased economic activity, improving air quality, and transferring technology. CDM projects can also earn credits that are tradable and saleable. - Wood stoves in Nigeria
In Nigeria, firewood consumption has led to severe deforestation and desertification. Highly efficient wood stoves are helping to tackle this problem. Households are saving money, youth are finding employment, and time that used to be spent collecting wood is now going to income generation. - Solar panels in South Africa
Families in Kuyasa, a low-income informal settlement in the Khayelitsha township, have not only managed to cut their electricity costs, but are also doing their bit to reduce harmful greenhouse gas emissions. - Waste collection and treatment in C�te d'Ivoire
This waste-to-energy project will collect and treat 200,000 tonnes of urban waste annually using anaerobic digesters. The resulting biogas will be used to produce electricity, while residual waste will be transformed into compost. - Papermill in South Africa
This fuel switch project reduces fossil fuel use and brings additional benefits, such as the long-term sustainability of the local paper mill and economic improvement in the area where the project is located.
