Sky News published this video item, entitled “Farmers blocked from own land for oil giant’s tree project” – below is their description.
Farmers living in Congo say they have been barred from accessing their land so that the French oil giant Total Energies and the Congolese government can use it for a carbon offsetting project to plant 40 million trees.
According to an investigation shared exclusively with Sky News by Greenpeace UK Unearthed and the SourceMaterial investigative group, the project appears to have come at a significant cost to an estimated 400 farmers and their families.
