In the RAS study, participating psychiatrists had calculated the rate of dose reduction by themselves based on SCAP criteria.
Originally thought to be early offshoots in evolution, it became clear that microsporidia have undergone extreme genomic reduction, divesting themselves of metabolic pathways (Weidner et al., 1999; Williams and Keeling, 2011) and reducing some organelles such as their mitochondria to tiny relict structures that carry out only a limited array of essential processes (Goldberg et al., 2008).
But under the scheme's 'Track 1' – which covered around 97% of projects – states only needed to verify reductions between themselves, without any UNFCCC oversight.
