Adam Morton writing The Guardian writes, Labor and the Greens may yet reach a compromise, possibly by legislating so that credits from protecting forests can only be bought by industries not involved in fossil fuel extraction and production.

The New South Wales government has said it will do this, though it's not clear how it could work.

So can you explain what's the truth there?
