In collaboration with PACJA, PANELTECH US. Corp. aims to focus on environmental justice by holding consumers and businesses accountable for their actions.

PASADENA, CALIFORNIA, UNITED STATES, June 13, 2021 /EINPresswire.com/ – Amid global pandemic turmoil, we are harshly reminded of the entrenched inequality when it comes to dealing with the negative impact of man-made disasters. Today we have essential health care accessible only to high-income countries, leaving desperate places to get worse. Similar to COVID-19, the climate crisis disproportionately affects people in poverty, killing at abnormal rates. Unprecedented environmental challenges continue to drive us to dire tipping points. Among many things we take for granted in our environment, one of the key issues is the unsustainable use of natural resources and the inherent waste that results from our daily habits as consumers. Climate change not only threatens our ecology and our wildlife, but highlights the apparent injustice in supply and demand. A waste solutions provider – PANELTECH US. Corp. aims to refocus on the notion of environmental justice by holding consumers and businesses accountable for their actions. The company is taking action to meet the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and set a new standard for all stakeholders involved in waste management.

To provide more information and innovation, PANELTECH US. Corp. is delighted to partner with the Pan-African Alliance for Climate Justice (PACJA), to jointly promote its circular economic model on the African continent. Created by a group of civil societies to bring local voices to the international dialogue on climate change, PACJA’s mandate is to unify grassroots efforts to address systemic issues. Today, PACJA has an alliance with more than 1000 organizations covering 48 African countries. These include NGOs, community organizations, indigenous communities, trusts, foundations and local farmers. “Today most of us are living comfortably, we have zoom meetings in an air-conditioned room, we talk about what we need to help the most vulnerable. But visiting and working with farmers is the way to really understand the kind of hardships they are going through. This is why we must advocate for an alliance for climate justice, ”said Mithika Mwenda of PACJA.

PACJA’s vision is to empower and amplify the voices of rural communities, women, people with disabilities and many others who are in urgent need of sustainable aid. These activities are supported and funded by the Swedish Agency for the International Development Corporation (SIDA) and the World Bank, as well as several governments across the African continent. PACJA will push for further research on these communities through its national platforms, including the implementation of a 10-year sub-grant project funded by the Forest Carbon Partnership Fund (FCPF) to address forest carbonation. deforestation.

In addition, PACJA has forged strong partnerships with key stakeholders such as the African Ministerial Conference on the Environment (AMCEN), the United Nations Environment Program (UNEP), regional economic integration communities and national governments to strengthen the continent’s voice in international platforms to promote climate change. related policies in Africa.

Thanks to the partnership with PACJA, PANELTECH US. Corp. can gain an on-the-ground understanding of local issues, to better help mobilize existing local network strengths and build resilience to the impacts of climate change in Africa. “The majority of African countries do not have their own industrial chain to handle waste, nor the capacity to handle waste from all over the world. We hope to establish an industrial chain of waste-resource solutions, produce essential materials such as locally needed building materials, with global export potential, mainly solve structural problems and create employment opportunities in the waste management sector, ”said Leiven Tsai. , CEO of PANELTECH.FR Corp. Together, they will advance the African Union (AU) AGENDA 2063 and the United Nations SDGs. PANELTECH.US and PACJA will unite their resources to mobilize the sustainable development plan for a green environment circular economy, thus effecting effective change on a larger scale. At the same time, PACJA will have observer status for PANELTECH.US projects and green profit funds, advise PANELTECH.US on where and how the utility of green profits can be maximized. Justice must be at the forefront of development projects today and the two entities hope to hold businesses and governments accountable for their actions. Under the existing strengths of PACJA, it is with optimism to see positive changes that will emerge from the collaboration.
