Photo Essay by Tamra Gilbertson

This photo exhibition is based on research conducted in India between November 2006 and March 2007. The exhibition aims to highlight the serious flaws in the concept of offsetting pollution by looking beyond the glossy veneer of the brochures of carbon brokers and by giving a voice to communities faced with confronting corporate power.
