TOKYO -- A Japanese provider of climate solutions is looking to expand a project to curb methane emissions from rice paddies in the Philippines in order to create carbon credits.

Tokyo-based Creattura creates carbon credits and supports the promotion of renewable energy. Its project falls under Japan's Joint Crediting Mechanism, which provides technological support to emerging economies to reduce their emissions to create credits that Japanese businesses can purchase.
