We support Greenpop South Africa
Being part of the global 50 companies for sustainability, Jungheinrich South Africa joined Greenpop to decrease our deforestation in Southern Africa by planting trees for each electric forklift we sell.
THE PROBLEM: Africa is the world’s most rapidly urbanising continent.
Between 2000 and 2030 the urban population will more than double and urban space will increase by more than 700%. As this happens, ecosystems and the essential natural assets they provide will come under threat. During this time of expansion and innovation, it is imperative that natural spaces are both protected and incorporated into urban landscapes.
THE SOLUTION: By conserving and restoring ecosystems, we can ensure a sustainable future.
Jungheinrich South Africa has partnered with Greenpop, a Cape Town based NGO, to contribute towards conserving and restoring ecosystems across Sub-Saharan Africa. Greenpop's work includes planting tress and vegetation in urban greening and reforestation projects and, to date, they have planted 150,000 trees.
THE BENEFITS: When we conserve and restore ecosystems, everyone wins.
