Excited to share a significant moment for both direct air capture and greenhouse horticulture’s sustainability journey! Earlier this week, Agriculture Minister Piet Adema, commemorated the opening of the Innovation and Demonstration Center for CO2 from Outdoor Air (Innovatie en Demonstratie Centrum CO2 uit Buitenlucht, IDC). The initiative, spearheaded by Wageningen University & Research, aims to explore the feasibility and potential of various CO2 air capture/extraction techniques. It’s a testament to the Netherlands’ commitment to sustainable practices, with Skytree paving the way to be the first to conduct tests with a Skytree Cumulus unit. Overall, the opening of this field lab is a great recognition of the horticulture sector’s ambition and commitment to climate neutrality. As we continue to navigate towards a more sustainable future, it’s clear that collaboration and innovation, as demonstrated by IDC, will be key. Special thanks to Wageningen University & Research and Glastuinbouw Nederland for this opportunity. Read more (In Dutch): https://lnkd.in/exVbzBrk

It's that time of year when CMPC releases the annual 2023 Integrated Report. This document highlights our progress, achievements, insights and aspirations in sustainability, social responsibility, and corporate governance. One of the projects I'm most excited about is the CMPC Patagonia Reserve. This extraordinary initiative aims to conserve and restore over 25,000 hectares of degraded land in the south of Chile. The project is divided into three main categories: 1 - Conserving 13,280 hectares of native forests and other natural ecosystems 2 - Restoring 4,513 hectares with the presence of exotic species through careful thinning of pines to favor the regeneration of native species, 3 - Creating carbon sinks in 8,100 hectares of exotic forests not productively intervened. Additionally, it includes an annual competitive fund to support local organization projects. Discover more by reading the full report at: bit.ly/3R7tpsz PT Chegou a época do ano em que a CMPC divulga o Relatório Integrado anual 2023. Este documento destaca nosso progresso, conquistas, percepções e aspirações em sustentabilidade, responsabilidade social e governança corporativa. Um dos projetos que mais me entusiasma é o da Reserva CMPC Patagônia. Esta iniciativa extraordinária visa conservar e restaurar mais de 25.000 hectares de terras degradadas no sul do Chile. O projeto está dividido em três categorias principais: 1 – Conservar 13.280 hectares de florestas nativas e outros ecossistemas naturais 2 - Recuperação de 4.513 hectares com presença de espécies exóticas através de desbaste cuidadoso de pinheiros para favorecer a regeneração de espécies nativas, 3 - Criação de sumidouros de carbono em 8.100 hectares de florestas exóticas sem intervenção produtiva. Além disso, inclui um fundo competitivo anual para apoiar projetos organizacionais locais. Descubra mais lendo o relatório completo em: bit.ly/3R7tpsz CMPC Brasil CMPC Pulp

“It is our commitment to the category to be its stewards. If we are to do that seriously, we think sustainability should be at the center of everything we do; it is a key piece of what should be expected from our industry.” Read Deoleo’s North America Thierry Moyroud’s interview with Olive Oil Times on prioritizing quality production and sustainable practices above all else: https://lnkd.in/g8Ste7q6 #Deoleo #Caringforwhatcaresforyou

In 2023, we developed our first sustainability strategy together with external professionals. This was based on an internal and external materiality analysis to identify our focus topics, which we divided into these three fields of action: Environment Employees Corporate Responsibility To find out more about Our Sustainability Fields of Action, visit our website www.wiska.co.uk and head to the Sustainability page. #WISKA #WeCare #Sustainability #EcoVadis

oops seems like we have been doing it all wrong 😅. Indigenous knowledge refers to understandings, skills, and philosophies developed by local communities with long histories and experiences of interaction with their natural surroundings~ UNESCO Indigenous knowledge is sustainable and focuses on living harmoniously with nature. Examples of indigenous knowledge include traditional medicine used for healing, the sustainable farming, the farmers did not use insecticides, pesticides and inorganic fertilizers, the land resource and management, traditional arts and crafts, oral traditions and story telling etc. Recently there is a surge in regenerative agriculture practices. There is a general assumption that local communities don't know about it, and that its something new and sophisticated. But it is not! Communities had been doing it for thousands of years, maybe they didn't have the fancy names to describe it, but they already knew how to till the land without your fancy fertilizers. 😄 😁 For example in Muranga County where I come from, my parents farm was already an orchard by itself, with trees 🌳 and fruits forming different canopies. We grew 🌽, intercropped with beans 🫘, and potatoes on rotational basis. Further, there were different varieties of bananas planted at certain intervals. We also had macadamia, and avacados. In the coffee farm, we had terraces that had crawling grass to hold it up and minimise erosion. There was also some trees and cassava plants planted at equidistant positions. on the hedges we had different trees such as Euphorbia, bougainvillea, kei-apple etc ( maruru - a natural insecticides etc) We also had water harvesting terraces covered in nappier and a small forest with blue gum trees whose floor swept clean at the beginning of every season to acquire leaves for mulching. Among other things I can't sum it up. How did my parents know what to do? Their parents, and the chain goes on and on. We can't ignore indigenous knowledge if we are seeking to be sustainable.

As an Environmental Studies graduate, stewardship is one of the first lenses that I consider any client through. Selling plant-based products, handing out reusable bags and citing the source of just a few of your key ingredients no longer makes the cut. I want investments in regenerative agriculture, divestment in resource-intensive processing, equitable partnerships with Indigenous producers, seven generation considerations and commitments. Yogi's really doing it. Check out their 2023 Sustainability Report for a full-cycle, in-depth look the growth they've made in just a few short years: https://lnkd.in/gef-MP2U TLDR: Yogi's sustainability score: A+. My excitement about getting to tell these stories: 10 / 10.

🌱 Using sheep's wool as fertilizer for agriculture?!? At Sproutfull, we constantly learn from the companies we conduct LCAs for, and the insights always manage to surprise us! Recently, we performed an LCA for Wolterra (www.wolterra.nl), and the results were impressive: wool pellets can be a circular alternative to synthetic fertilizers! 💡 Why is this so interesting? Second-choice sheep wool is usually burned, stored for long periods, or even shipped all the way to China for processing—processes that create a significant amount of CO₂ emissions. But Wolterra found a way to transform this waste material into high-quality fertilizer, giving the wool a second life and avoiding a huge amount of CO₂ emissions in the process! 🌿 This kind of sustainable solution shows how innovation and circularity can go hand in hand. Thanks to the LCA, Wolterra can now scientifically demonstrate the potential CO₂ savings their product offers to customers. Curious about how an LCA could help your organization quantify product impact and convince customers with data-driven insights? Let’s have a conversation! 💬 #sustainability #circulareconomy #lifecycleanalysis #sproutfull #wolterra
