In connection with suspected cases of fraud in China, the Federal Environment Agency (UBA) wants to stop 45 climate projects. „Our goal is to reverse all 45 suspicious China projects“, explained UBA President Dirk Messner at a digital press conference on Monday. The projects were under „very strong suspicion of fraud“. It is probably a „deceptive contract system“ in which projects are registered that do not meet the stated requirements, such as the reduction of greenhouse gases, he explained.
