What they argued
Effectiveness: in the case of the JTF in particular, there is considerable pressure on the rapid use of funds. For several regions, the presence of a large company making a significant contribution to CO2 emissions is also the reason that JTF resources are available. However, the opportunities for the large company to participate in JTF projects are limited and in any case not made easy.
