Dear friends and collaborators
We are currently starting a post installation work and maintenance of the biodigesters.
We are visiting all digesters installed by Iddeia.
All of them, including those sponsored by Global Giving.
With this work, which will be accompanied by this platform, we hope to confirm the durability, efficiency and relevance of biodigesters in the lives of beneficiaries!
This importance is not only in the lives of those directly benefiting or receiving a digester. The environmental importance of the project are becoming ever more prominent.
In Brazil we are experiencing an unprecedented water crisis. The preservation of water is critical to a balance of biota and the digester in small farms can help a lot when dealing with the barnyard manure effluent and not allow it to come in natura into water bodies
As we know the protection of native forests, in the regions have legal protection, on the banks of the rivers and reservoirs is also essential for the production of water. Without forest cover, water can not penetrate properly in groundwater, causing decrease in the amount of water.
Again the biodigester makes big difference in this context by allowing small farmers do not remove the timber from the forest to generate thermal energy, using methane gas to generate heat energy.
None of this would be possible without the help and partnership of you.
Thank you very much!
