he European Commission has approved Bulgaria's long-delayed 2008-2012 carbon plan, allowing industries to start trading in carbon credits, the ministry of environment and water said Saturday. "Bulgaria was given the greenlight to join the EU trade in carbon emissions permits," the ministry said in a statement. After a delay of three years, Bulgaria sent its revised CO2 plan to Brussels last December, allocating carbon emissions permits to some 132 industrial installations in the country, which they can now trade with other businesses.
