🌍 Interesting Fact: 🌍 Approximately 80% of marine debris is plastic waste, contaminating our oceans from the surface to deep-sea sediments. However, waste pickers are crucial in addressing this environmental crisis. In developing nations, they collect around 60% of plastic waste, thereby preventing plastics from entering our oceans and safeguarding marine life. Let's acknowledge the significant impact of waste pickers in constructing a more sustainable future! At TakaNiAjira Foundation, we are dedicated to amplifying the voices of waste pickers and backing their endeavors in environmental conservation. Join us in supporting waste pickers and preserving our environment. 🔗 www.takaniajira.org 📧 info@takaniajira.org #TakaNiAjira #WastePickers #PlasticPollution #Sustainability #CircularEconomy #ClimateAction #SupportWastePickers

Water preservation faces increasing challenges that require the attention of the entire international community, as water scarcity is a global threat. Although 71% of the Earth's surface is covered by water, only 3% is freshwater.   Of this total, 2.2% is trapped in glaciers, leaving only 1% for all human activities and needs. Brazil holds 12% of the planet's water resources.   In this scenario, companies have a crucial role to play, contributing to more conscious consumption and supporting sustainability plans aimed at protecting the environment in general and water in particular.   Therefore, BRF Ingredients follows the BRF Sustainability Plan, which focuses on water reuse and prioritizes surface water intake, treating wastewater and reusing about 95% of the resource taken from the environment.   Check out the document we prepared to learn more.
