Even though the activity is currently in its pilot phase, it has already reduced methane and carbon
dioxide emissions.
|
The activity has provided renewable energy through biogas which has helped the community receive access
to heat and electricity. The conversion of organic waste into high quality fertilizer has improved the
living conditions of the communities in the pilot area. For example, it has provided significant
savings on energy consumption and has reduced diseases, especially among women, children and the
elderly.

The activity has significant potential for scaleability and replication. Through the use of online
learning materials, it has already promoted the deployment of this waste reduction technology
throughout municipalities in Honduras and Latin America.
