“We are in the middle of an economic, environmental and social crisis. And most of us don’t do anything to tackle that.”
PUR Projet is a collective organisation specialised in "Insetting via agroforestry". Insetting means offsetting the social and environmental footprint of a company within its own supply chains and sphere of influence. The forestry projects generate multiple benefits for local communities, while regenerating the ecosystems companies depend upon to make their supply chains and business sustainable. PUR Projet is a certified B Corporation with about 40 projects in around 40 countries. Since its inception PUR Projet has planted 7 million trees and has manages over 200 million trees under conservation.
