ENVIRONMENT
UTTAR PRADESH The project aims to utilize surplus bagasse from a sugar mill in Uttar Pradesh, India, to generate steam and electricity for green energy transmission and distribution. By replacing grid power, which largely relies on fossil fuels, the project reduces dependency on non-renewable sources and lowers CO2 emissions.
RIO ANAPU PACAJA A project in the BrazilianAmazon covering 148,000 hectares in Portel combats deforestation by supporting local families in adopting sustainable agroforestry. Since 2012, the initiative has expanded monitoring efforts, training locals to patrol and engage squatters, offering alternative income sources to deter illegal logging and promote nature conservation. The regional forests are rich in valuable timber species.

COMMUNITY
UTTAR PRADESH The project will create jobs in rural areas, offering stable employment opportunities to local sugarcane farmers who typically face unpredictable income.
It will also provide higher-value jobs at the cogeneration plant.
Additionally, the initiative supports sustainable development at local, national, and global levels, aligning with India’s goal of promoting clean energy.
RIO ANAPU PACAJA To prevent illegal logging, the project supports the so-called "Ribeirinhos", who live along the rivers and small streams.
They are encouraged to use sustainable agroforestry techniques and receive land use rights for their contribution to nature conservation.
Since 2012, the project has been scaling up its monitoring activities by training local villagers as monitoring staff.
The patrol teams approach squatters and invite them to work for the project. They offer alternative sources of income through joining the social project activities or the patrol teams in monitoring the project area.

BIODIVERSITY
UTTAR PRADESH The project helps decrease reliance on carbon-intensive energy resources, ensures efficient waste management, and conserves natural resources. By doing so, it protects the surrounding ecosystem and promotes biodiversity.
RIO ANAPU PACAJA Forests are not only among the planet's most important carbon reservoirs. They also are home to an enormous diversity of species and are the livelihood for all people. However, global forest areas have declined sharply in recent decades due to increasing settlement, agricultural use, illegal logging and mining. Forest protection projects ensure that forests are preserved in the long term and that the protection of forests is given a higher value than their deforestation.
