Climate Action Project – Protecting Biodiversity in Peru
In 2015, there were an estimated three trillion trees globally. Since then, deforestation has claimed over 15 billion trees each year, leading to a staggering 46% decline in the global tree count. This loss not only releases carbon stored in trees but also diminishes the future ability to sequester carbon. However, through dedicated conservation efforts like Peru’s Tambopata-Bahuaja Project there is hope. In this blog, we’ll explore how this ambitious initiative is working to preserve Peru’s rich ecosystems and promote sustainable practices.

In this article we’ll delve into the impact of the Zoba Debub Community Boreholes Project, which not only restores vital water sources, empowering local communities to safeguard their future but also reduces carbon emissions by replacing traditional water purification methods.
Climate Action Project – Wildflowers, Wetlands & Wildlife
The UK’s biodiversity offers invaluable benefits, including picturesque landscapes, unique wildlife, clean air, and water, along with habitats that naturally sequester carbon to mitigate climate change. However, biodiversity in the UK is under severe threat, with 50% of its biodiversity already lost. In this article, we’ll explore the important role the Wildflowers, Wetlands and Wildlife project plays in creating and restoring habitats for plants and animals above the ground, as well as how restoration work is vital to keep soils healthy.

UK Smart Grid & Smart Meters
A smart energy system is being developed in the UK that uses digital technology to revolutionise the way that we generate and use energy. At the heart of this system are smart meters, that produce accurate data and automatically provide meter readings, so that suppliers and grid operators can actively monitor consumer usage. Find out what this means for your business and the positive impact this will have on climate change.
