Belem Bioenergia Brasil, in partnership with family farmers, has been a significant ally in the pursuit of sustainability, as it relies on a cultivation method with low environmental impact. For the company, fostering the development of family partners is also a way to practice Social Responsibility, considering that the progress of each farmer reflects in the economic growth of the communities where the plantations exist. Therefore, having a strong and productive family agriculture translates to job creation, income generation, peace in rural areas, and the effective functioning of the local economy.

On Monday, June 5, we celebrated World Environment Day. To commemorate this significant date, we carried out a simple yet meaningful project in partnership with Bom Pastor Municipal School: tree planting as a means of environmental awareness.

BBB donated 10 seedlings of yellow ipê and 10 seedlings of pink ipê, all planted on the same day by the students in the school's own area, located in the Quatro Bocas district, Tomé-Açu.

Furthermore, on June 7, we conducted an initiative in collaboration with Acará-Mirim Indigenous School, situated in the rural area of Tomé-Açu. During this event, we held lectures on the importance of preserving riverbanks and waters of the streams. Guidance on proper waste disposal was also provided.

All of these activities were part of the Environmental Week.

The BBB/Embrasca ARR Project

Afforestation and reforestation of lands except wetlands

Among the social projects carried out by BBB, there is the project for the reform of the local community water supply system: Água Azul and Água Boa.

Ensure availability and sustainable management of water and sanitation for all

SDG 6: Clean Water and Sanitation

The project helps technically preparing for the market and alternative occupations, income generation and workforce qualification for labor and social inclusion. In addition to protecting labor rights and promoting safe and protected work environments for all workers. Because of project operations, the number of local employees working in the Project Zone has increased. It has also allowed for the specialization and certification of this workforce, resulting in increased wages and benefits for these workers and their families.

Promote sustained, inclusive and sustainable economic growth, full and productive employment and decent work for all

SDG 8: Decent Work and Economic Growth

Belem Bioenergia Brasil S.A. values the sustainable management and efficient use of natural resources, as well as the environmentally management of chemical products and all waste throughout their life cycle, in accordance with agreed international standards, and to significantly reduce their release into the air, water and soil to minimize their negative impacts on human health and the environment.

Ensure sustainable consumption and production patterns

SDG 12: Responsible Consumption and Production

Because of the emission reductions generated by the project, the project activity contributes especially to this goal.

Take urgent action to combat climate change and its impacts

SDG 13: Climate Action

Local fauna and flora are regularly checked in accordance with special internal operational procedures for such operations, with a technical report produced at the conclusion of the evaluation. Because of the environmental advantages created because of the actions carried out, the project activity itself contributes directly to this goal. The project aims to ensure the conservation, recovery, and sustainable use of terrestrial ecosystems, in addition contributes to restoration of degraded soil. combating deforestation, burning.

Protect, restore and promote sustainable use of terrestrial ecosystems, sustainably manage forests, combat desertification, and halt and reverse land degradation and halt biodiversity loss

SDG 15: Life on Land

Afforestation and reforestation

The BBB/Embrasca ARR Project, located in the Brazilian Amazon, involves the reforestation of previously degraded pastures with oil palm trees. This initiative aims to mitigate climate change by planting nearly 25,000 hectares of oil palm trees, which is expected to remove over 3.7 million tons of CO2 from the atmosphere over 30 years. Additionally, the project contributes to the restoration of biodiversity, as oil palm cultivation on unused agricultural land reduces carbon emissions significantly compared to deforestation, and it fosters local sustainable development by providing employment and promoting social and environmental responsibility. The project aligns with best sustainability practices, focusing on respecting the environment and supporting traditional and non-traditional communities in the region.

The BBB/Embrasca ARR Project is situated within sectoral scope 14 of the International Carbon Registry and operates in Tailândia and Tomé-Açu, Pará, Brazil. The project transforms previously degraded pastures into a sustainable agroforestry ecosystem by planting oil palm trees, effectively addressing environmental challenges and promoting climate change mitigation, biodiversity conservation, and community development.
