Please be informed that one of our four global compensation projects was replaced. The previous Clean Water project in Malawi was replaced by this new one:
Natural Regeneration in Ethiopia
The Ethiopian highlands are facing intense degradation and loss in biodiversity. In these areas, vegetation is being regenerated and protected. This project aims to protect about 540 hectares of "exclosures", which will remove about 5,530 tonnes of CO2 emissions per year from the atmosphere, further improve the vegetation and reduce soil erosion.
The project supports landless farmers in implementing soil and water conservation, enrichment planting and applying improved management techniques. By building local capacities and providing free training on the sustainable use of these ecosystems, the rural household income for landless farmers is improved and community-wide benefits are created.
Check out our Sustainability section for more information about the actions taken. Thank you for your support and always contact sustainability@bertling.com for questions.
