Carbon Footprint

By developing sustainable business models, it is more profitable for the local communities to harvest the indigenous fruits rather than to cut down the forest.

As the largest exporter of Açaí in the world, EarthFruits presents a viable economic reason not to destroy the rainforest. In fact, estimated preservation reached more than 1,500 acres in 2007, 15,000 acres in 2008 and predicted to reach over 20,000 acres in 2010.

With the current rate of deforestation being the equivalent of an area the size of a football field every single minute, EarthFruits will be saving over 27,225 football field areas of the rainforest.

As the world’s largest supplier of high quality Açai and other exotic fruits, EarthFruits is developing rainforest alliances and carbon credit programs for the company and its customers.
