A Iniciativa Verde

Our commitment is to offset Greenhouse gases emitted by human activities - from the simple act of drive a car to the most sophisticated industrial process - recovering degraded riparian areas. The trees absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, as well contribute to the soil, water and the biological diversity conservation.

Location:

São Carlos 2006 - SP - Brasil

3,400 native trees were planted in October of 2006, in the margins of the Ribeirão Feijão, which is responsible to 30% of the water supply to the city of São Carlos.

Along with the project implementation the area is often visited by schools where the students learn about the importance of the riparian area conservation.
