Macaranga Wrap-up: November 2021

Wong Siew Lyn and Law Yao Hua, the Co-Founders, Co-Editors and Writers from online journalism portal, Macaranga join us again for a round-up of big environmental news, from the month of November 2021. This month, we've got pledges on our minds - first, Malaysia's pledge at COP26 to stop deforestation by 2030, and also what Malaysia has agreed to, by signing the Global Methane Pledge, along with 103 other countries. We also try to figure out how carbon credits work, and what this form of trading is all about, especially for Malaysia.
