The Emissions Reduction Assurance Committee commissioned analytical work to examine several concerns raised about the Emissions Reduction Fund’s Human Induced Regeneration (HIR) method (Human-induced regeneration of a permanent even-aged native forest methodology determination). The Committee found that the evidence from robust analysis does not support these concerns.
For a statement from the ERAC and a peer reviewed, analytical report by agricultural statisticians (Dr Stephen Beare and Prof Ray Chambers) into these matters, see Emissions Reduction Assurance Committee publications.
