Green Actions International, proud co-headline sponsor of Sterling’s Gloucester Expo, are thrilled to share our latest initiatives aimed at driving impactful environmental change. Read on to learn more about our mission!
About Us
Welcome to Green Actions International, where our mission is to drive impactful environmental change through innovative solutions in carbon trading, compliance, and finance control. We specialise in creating comprehensive ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) and CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility) carbon credit packages, ensuring that our partners meet their sustainability goals. At Green Actions International, we are committed to fostering a sustainable future through meticulous strategy and robust financial control. Join us in our journey to make a lasting impact on the environment.
It’s JUST Climate Change – Our UK Initiative
Through our “It’s JUST Climate Change” initiative in the UK, Green Actions International aims to create impactful change by focusing on several key areas:
- Investor Hubs: Establishing hubs to connect investors with high-impact climate projects, fostering collaboration and funding opportunities.
- Influencer Function: Engaging influencers to raise awareness about the efficacy and sustainability of climate solutions, amplifying our message and reaching a broader audience.
- Awareness Campaigns: Promoting the effectiveness and sustainability of our solutions to ensure widespread understanding and support.
- Consultancy Packages: Offering tailored consultancy services that link your ESG vision with high-integrity carbon removal strategies and the sustainability of communities currently under extreme climate duress.
Carbon Credits
We aim to make available 10,000 tonnes of carbon credits through bulk trade or individual purchase, with prices reflecting the impact of each type of credit:
- Plantation Trees: £10 per tonne
- Biochar Carbon (Rangeland Remediation): £200 per tonne
Pure plantation tree-based credits have limited impact in terms of biodiversity, rural incomes, job creation, and just transition outcomes. In contrast, biochar carbon credits offer significant benefits. The project has received enthusiastic support from communities and administrations. By incorporating biochar into the soil, we create long-term carbon storage with a persistence of up to 1,000 years. Join us in making a tangible difference. It’s Just Climate Change.
Malisho Upya (Green Pastures)
Building Resilience in Pastoral Communities
Malisho Upya, the flagship 20-year program of Green Actions International, is dedicated to building resilience against drought and climate change within the pastoral communities of North East Kenya, Somalia, and Ethiopia.
Our Mission
Pastoral nomad livelihoods are increasingly at risk as their livestock succumb to drought and food scarcity. Climate change is wreaking unprecedented destruction, often leading to the displacement of pastoral nomads and their livestock. Thirty years ago, pastoral existence was less fragile, with sufficient grazing, water, and market access supporting a culture with roots back to Palaeolithic times. Today, these stewards of the semi-arid regions face the threat of losing their livelihoods and being forced into refugee camps or emergency camps for internally displaced people.
Challenges and Opportunities
Rural farmers face resource pressures, such as water use resulting from mass urbanisation, reducing the viability of their farms. There is a pressing need for economically viable solutions that build on the cultural capabilities and heritage of these communities.
Innovative Solutions
Malisho Upya is based on the concept of cultural entrepreneurship, which applies to pastoral nomads and rural farmers in East Africa. Our project leverages the skills of pastoral nomads and rural farmers to maximise community benefits from tree planting, improved land management, and land remediation. Benefits include incomes from medicinal plants, timber, materials for fencing, fattened livestock, and fertilizer. Malisho Upya reduces landscape degradation and builds community drought resistance funds. Join us in our mission to empower pastoral communities and build a sustainable future through Malisho Upya.
