Episode Synopsis
Live recording from Kakamega's rainforest!
Eco2Librium is a certified B Corp, which is delivering business solutions to solve social and environmental problems.
It is working in the delicate ecosystem of the Kakamega forest, a densely populated area and a hotspot for biodiversity in Western Kenya. Here Anton Espira and his team are using carbon credit to respond to energy needs and empower women. With more than 120,000 stoves installed, they have created a strong network of producers and installers, helped save tons of GHG emissions, and more than halved the burden for women. They have reforested key areas to create corridors to rehabilitate the fragile forest ecosystem. They are now using a circular economy approach to develop briquettes for fuel, thus eliminating firewood. They have established a sister B Corp, Solibrium, to tackle off-grid energy needs.
A holistic approach from one of the Best for the World!
