BIOPRO'S Carbon Mitigation
Environmental Impact
Biopro's innovative processes achieve a reduction of approximately 4,040 kilograms of CO2e for every tonne of organic material upcycled.
This cumulative impact has resulted in a total savings of over
~ 404,000,000 kilograms of CO2e saved,
highlighting Biopro's significant contribution to global climate mitigation efforts.
Overview
Biopro is a global leader in the conversion of organic materials into high-value agricultural inputs, championing sustainability in both the agricultural and resource management sectors. To date. the Biopro team has successfully upcycled over
~ 108,000,000 kilograms of organic materials,
significantly mitigating the environmental impact associated with traditional disposal methods.
Sustainability
Biopro’s commitment to regenerative agriculture is a testament to our dedication to sustainability. By addressing key environmental and social challenges, Biopro supports multiple UN SDGs and contributes to the creation of a more sustainable and resilient global community. Through its innovative approaches and strategic partnerships, Biopro continues to lead the way in the industry, demonstrating the profound impact of sustainable practices on our planet and society.
SDG 2: Zero Hunger
Biopro contributes to SDG 2 by enhancing agricultural productivity through sustainable fertilizers derived from food waste.
These fertilizers improve soil fertility and crop yields, supporting food security and promoting sustainable farming practices. This not only ensures a steady supply of nutritious food but also helps farmers adopt eco-friendly agricultural methods.
Biopro's UN SDGs
SDG 12: Responsible Consumption and Production
Biopro’s innovative process of converting food waste into valuable agricultural products exemplifies responsible consumption and production patterns. By reducing waste generation and promoting the efficient use of resources, Biopro supports the creation of a circular economy. This approach minimizes the environmental footprint of food production and consumption, fostering a more sustainable and resilient food system.
SDG 13: Climate Action
Biopro plays a crucial role in climate action by significantly reducing greenhouse gas emissions associated with food waste incineration. The incineration of food waste generates large amounts of CO2e. By upcycling food waste, Biopro not only reduces these emissions but also lessens the reliance on chemical fertilizers, which are major contributors to carbon emissions.
SDG 15: Life on Land
Through its sustainable agricultural practices, Biopro enhances soil health, preserves biodiversity, and protects ecosystems. The use of Biopro’s organic fertilizers leads to improved soil structure, increased water retention, and a reduction in soil erosion.
This contributes to the restoration of degraded lands and the promotion of sustainable land management practices, aligning with the goals of SDG 15.
SDG 17: Partnerships for the Goals
Biopro actively fosters strategic partnerships to advance collective sustainability goals. By collaborating with agricultural producers, resource management agencies, research institutions, & other stakeholders, Biopro facilitates the exchange of knowledge, drives innovation, & scales sustainable practices. These partnerships are instrumental in achieving the UN SDGs, demonstrating the power of collaboration in addressing global environmental and social challenges.
SDG 3: Good Health and Well-being
Biopro indirectly supports good health and well-being by contributing to safer and more sustainable agricultural practices. The reduction of synthetic fertilizer use and promotion of organic alternatives can lead to healthier soils and crops, thereby reducing the presence of harmful chemicals in food supplies. This contributes to better overall public health outcomes by minimizing exposure to toxic substances and promoting nutrient-rich food production.
SDG 6: Clean Water and Sanitation
Biopro's organic fertilizers contribute to clean water and sanitation by reducing the runoff of harmful chemicals into waterways. Synthetic fertilizers are often a major source of nutrient pollution in rivers, lakes, and coastal areas, causing eutrophication and other negative environmental impacts. Biopro's sustainable products help maintain water quality by promoting organic agricultural practices that minimize water contamination.
SDG 8: Decent Work and Economic Growth
By creating innovative solutions and new market opportunities in sustainable agriculture and resource management, Biopro supports SDG 8. The company fosters economic growth by creating jobs in the biotechnology and agricultural sectors, and by supporting the agricultural value chain with sustainable inputs that can lead to higher crop yields and improved economic outcomes for farmers.
SDG 9: Industry, Innovation, & Infrastructure
Biopro contributes to SDG 9 by developing innovative technologies and processes for upcycling organic materials into high-value products. This drives industrial innovation in the biotechnology & agricultural sectors, promotes sustainable industrial practices, & encourages investments in sustainable infrastructure.
SDG 11: Sustainable Cities and Communities
Biopro’s activities help reduce the environmental footprint of urban areas by contributing to more sustainable management of organic materials.
