OUR SERVICES

At SGI, we specialize in providing solutions that enhance sustainable land management practices, promote biodiversity conservation, and address the impacts of climate change. Through our expertise in agroforestry, urban forestry, afforestation, and mangrove restoration, we work towards achieving a harmonious balance between human activities and the environment.

 

Agroforestry

 

SGI values the potential of agroforestry as a sustainable land-use practice that combines the cultivation of trees with crops. By integrating trees into agricultural landscapes, we not only enhance soil health and water retention but also increase farm productivity and biodiversity. Our agroforestry initiatives promote sustainable farming practices that benefit both the environment and local communities, fostering a harmonious relationship between agriculture and nature. SGI promotes and implements agroforestry techniques to support sustainable agriculture and enhance livelihoods in rural communities.

 

Urban Forestry

SGI works to promote urban forestry initiatives by planting trees in urban spaces, creating green infrastructure, and advocating for the preservation of existing green spaces. Urban forests play a crucial role in improving air quality, mitigating heat island effects, reducing storm water runoff, and providing habitat for urban wildlife. SGI aims to enhance urban biodiversity and create healthier, more sustainable cities through urban forestry practices.

By incorporating urban forestry and agroforestry into our portfolio of services, SGI demonstrates a holistic approach to environmental conservation and sustainable development. We strive to create synergies between different land-use practices to maximize the ecological, social, and economic benefits of tree planting initiatives.

 

Afforestation

 

At SGI our commitment to a sustainable future involves afforestation efforts.

By planting trees, we actively combat climate change, restore ecosystems, and improve air quality. Our afforestation projects are carried out in collaboration with local communities and organizations. Together, we select native tree species that are best suited for the local climate, ensuring long-term forest health and resilience.

Our afforestation initiatives not only help sequester carbon dioxide, but also provide numerous social and economic benefits. By involving local communities in the planting and maintenance process, we create employment opportunities, promote environmental education, and raise awareness about the importance of preserving our natural environment.

Our commitment to afforestation is not a short-term endeavor. We implement monitoring and maintenance programs to ensure the survival and growth of planted trees, allowing them to reach their full potential in terms of carbon sequestration and ecosystem restoration.

 

Mangroves and Carbon Sequestration: Sundarbans

 

In a significant stride towards environmental preservation and commitment to sustainability, SGI has dedicated 46% of the plantation to the cultivation of mangroves- nature’s powerful ally in combating climate change. Mangroves act as a natural barrier against storm surges, stabilize shorelines, and provide vital habitats for various marine and terrestrial species. These remarkable plants possess a unique ability to sequester and store significant amounts of carbon dioxide, making them invaluable players in mitigating greenhouse gas emissions.

SGI works towards restoring mangrove ecosystems, specifically in regions like the Sundarbans, to protect coastal communities from natural disasters, support biodiversity, and mitigate climate change impacts. By implementing effective restoration techniques, SGI aims to safeguard mangrove habitats and their associated ecosystem services.
