Red Mud

Red Mud is a waste by-product of the Bayer process for producing Aluminium oxide from bauxite ore.

It is an environmental concern due to the presence of impurities such as caustic soda and other minerals. It is highly alkaline in nature which makes it extremely corrosive and damaging to soil and life forms, presenting a massive problem for disposal.

Emissions trading, as set out in Article 17 of the Kyoto Protocol, allows countries that have emission units to spare - emissions permitted them but not "used" - to sell this excess capacity to countries that are over their targets

The Adaptation Fund (AF) was established in 2001 to finance concrete adaptation projects and programmes in developing country Parties to the Kyoto Protocol that are particularly vulnerable to the adverse effects of climate change.

The Adaptation Fund is financed with a share of proceeds from clean development mechanism (CDM) project activities and other sources of funding. The share of proceeds amounts to 2 % of certified emission reductions (CERs) issued for a CDM project activity.
