Fostering innovation and action to protect our planet
Association
"ECO-PROTECTION"
We are at the forefront of ecological innovation. By uniting our efforts, we seek and implement cutting-edge technologies and solutions aimed at reducing CO2 emissions and minimizing waste, thus promoting sustainable development and improving the environment.
Project Idea:
ECO PROTECTION was born from the realization that industry can be not only a source of pollution but also a driver of environmental change. We have set ourselves an ambitious goal: to transform harmful industries into environmentally friendly ones. Our team of experts is dedicated to developing and implementing innovative solutions that reduce CO2 emissions and minimize environmental impact. We believe that industry can become a leader in the fight against climate change.
Project Directions of ECO PROTECTION
Our Focus Areas
01
Reforestation for Forest Restoration
The reforestation project is a core focus of ECO PROTECTION. We concentrate on restoring lost and degraded forest ecosystems, which helps restore biodiversity and improve environmental quality. Our projects involve planting trees in abandoned and damaged areas as well as regions where forests have been logged or impacted
03
Alternative Energy
ECO PROTECTION actively promotes and implements alternative energy sources. We support the use of renewable energy sources, such as solar, wind, and hydroelectric power, to reduce dependence on fossil fuels and lower carbon emissions.
02
CO2 Absorption Tools
We develop and implement technologies and methods that facilitate the absorption of carbon from the atmosphere. Our primary focus is on creating and supporting projects that capture and store carbon, effectively offsetting emissions produced by industrial activities and other sources.
04
Waste Recycling and Disposal
We focus on improving waste recycling and disposal systems. Our projects aim to reduce the amount of waste sent to landfills and increase the proportion of recycled materials. We strive to implement sustainable waste management solutions and lessen environmental impact.
Statistics on Emissions Growth:
1990-2000
Global CO2 emissions increased from approximately 22.3 billion tons in 1990 to 24.8 billion tons in 2000
2000-2010
Global CO2 emissions increased from approximately 24.8 billion tons in 2000 to 33.5 billion tons in 2010
2010-2020
Global CO2 emissions increased from approximately 33.5 billion tons in 2010 to 36.4 billion tons in 2020
2020-2030
Forecasts indicate a further increase in CO2 emissions if significant reduction measures are not implemented. Without changes in policy and practice, emissions could exceed 40 billion tons by 2030
Project Geography:
2024-2025: European Market Consolidation
In the initial phase, ECO PROTECTION will focus on strengthening its position and expanding projects in Switzerland, Germany, Austria, and Poland. These countries will serve as primary platforms for implementing initiatives in reforestation, carbon capture, alternative energy, waste management, and innovative developments in environmental safety. The goal of this phase is to create effective, localized projects that can serve as models for future scaling.
2025-2026: Expansion Across the European Union
In the second phase, we plan to expand our geographic scope to all European Union countries. This expansion will enable us to address a broader range of environmental challenges across diverse ecosystems and regulatory environments. Building on the successes and experience of the first phase, we aim to establish a unified approach to environmental sustainability at the EU level.
2026-2027: Eastern European Countries and the Middle East
The third phase involves expanding our operations to Eastern European countries (Ukraine, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Georgia) and the Middle East. This strategic move will allow us to address environmental challenges in regions that are often overlooked in global sustainability efforts. The primary focus will be on adapting our projects to the unique environmental conditions of these regions.
2027: Scaling to the Transcontinental Market
In the final phase, ECO PROTECTION aims to scale its projects globally. This ambitious expansion involves providing our innovative environmental solutions to a global audience. We will seek partnerships and collaborations across continents to address climate change and environmental degradation on a worldwide scale. The ultimate goal is to create a global network of sustainable practices that can significantly impact the health of our planet.
