In #Kenya our energy efficiency work with @GIZ and partners has helped saved 10, 000 tons of CO2 and is helping farmers earn more money, we’re using these learnings to help factories in #SriLanka and #Indonesia make energy savings #SB50Bonn

Great to see such strong leadership and action at scale from @Taylors on this most pressing of issues. We know from our own experience the wide-ranging benefits tree planting programmes have on the lives of #teafarmers and communities

Mavuto, @ethicaltea #Malawi environment coordinator, believes the key is to instil value to the very idea of trees. “We are encouraging behaviour change. It’s not enough to cut down fewer trees, we must also replenish the forests.” #WorldEnvironmentDay

Esnart, member of her local tree nursery & hopes reforestation happens quickly. She said “The forest was so thick that if you went up with another person, you couldn’t see each other.” Our #MalawiTea2020 tree planting prog tackles deforestation #WorldEnvironmentDay

In 2018 @ethicaltea planted approximately 60, 000 trees. this will help save up to approximately 350 metric tons of CO2 – the trees will all have different benefits to the local environment #WorldEnvironmentDay tinyurl.com/y2khar7m

Research commissioned in 2017 by @UTZ concluded that although #climatechange will affect #Malawi’s 3 regions differently it will become harder to grow tea everywhere in the country #WorldEnvironmentDay #MalawiTea2020

ETP trains farmers on all beekeeping aspects from establishing the hive through to marketing and distribution. Beekeepers should harvest 60 kg a year & earn an income of 180, 000 kwacha, making a huge difference to their lives. #WorldBeeDay #MalawiTea2020 📷Andy Hall pic.twitter.com/MxGEUcgT0C

Tea farmer Liz earned 60,000 kwacha from her last harvest – almost the same as her tea harvest in the same period. The extra income will help Liz buy more cement to make home improvements and to buy more food #WorldBeeDay #MalawiTea2020

The whole community in #Malawi shares the environmental benefits of beekeeping. Bees help reduce deforestation as trees become worth more uncut and all farmers or villagers with kitchen gardens benefit from the rich ecosystem the bees support. #WorldBeeDay 📷Andy Hall pic.twitter.com/VuOtD6jpUV

Felester says:"#bees like the shade of the forest which moderates the temperature. They are close to the flowers they need, and they are safer. If they were near the houses, kids might throw stones and provoke them.” #WorldBeeDay #MalawiTea2020 tinyurl.com/yxacfa8z 📷Andy Hall pic.twitter.com/8RCTAocEtd

Farmer & beekeeper, Felester explains how hives are hung & protected by the forest. “We chose the forest for the apiary... smearing beeswax over the hives attracts the bees. We smear grease over the wires to stop ants & other insects getting into hives.” #WorldBeeDay 📷:Andy Hall pic.twitter.com/9Vi1aM9cNn
