Our commitment is part of a process led by major world organizations: the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.
The 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are the world’s best plan to build a better world for people and our planet by 2030.
Adopted by all United Nations Member States in 2015, the SDGs are a call for action by all countries –poor, rich and middle-income –to promote prosperity while protecting the environmen
2.4 By 2030, ensure sustainable food production systems and implement resilient agricultural practices that increase productivity and production, that help maintain ecosystems, that strengthen capacity for adaptation to climate change, extreme weather, drought, flooding and other disasters and that progressively improve land and soil quality.
2.5 By 2020, maintain the genetic diversity of seeds, cultivated plants and farmed and domesticated animals and their related wild species, including through soundly managed and diversified seed and plant banks at the national, regional and international levels, and promote access to and fair and equitable sharing of benefits arising from the utilization of genetic resources and associated traditional knowledge, as internationally agreed.
2.a Increase investment, including through enhanced international cooperation, in rural infrastructure, agricultural research and extension services, technologydevelopment and plant and livestock gene banks in order to enhance agricultural productive capacity in developing countries, in particular least developed countries.
6.3 By 2030, improve water quality by reducing pollution, eliminating dumping and minimizing release of hazardous chemicals and materials, halving the proportion of untreated wastewater and substantially increasing recycling and safe reuse globally
6.4 By 2030, substantially increase water-use efficiency acrossall sectors and ensure sustainable withdrawals and supply of freshwater to address water scarcity and substantially reduce the number of people suffering from water scarcity.
7.1 By 2030, ensure universal access to affordable, reliable and modern energy services.
7.2 By 2030, increase substantially the share of renewable energy in the global energy mix.
7.3 By 2030, double the global rate of improvement in energy efficiency.
7.a By 2030, enhance international cooperation to facilitate access to clean energy research and technology, including renewable energy, energy efficiency and advanced and cleaner fossil-fuel technology, and promote investment in energy infrastructure and clean energy technology.
8.2 Achieve higher levels of economic productivity through diversification, technological upgrading and innovation, including through a focus on high-value added and labour-intensive sectors.
8.3 Promote development-oriented policies that support productive activities, decent job creation, entrepreneurship, creativity and innovation, and encourage the formalization and growth of micro-, small-and medium-sized enterprises, including through access to financial services.
8.4 Improve progressively, through 2030, global resource efficiency in consumption and production and endeavour to decouple economic growth from environmental degradation, in accordance with the 10-year framework of programmes on sustainable consumption and production, with developed countries taking the lead.
8.5 By 2030, achieve full and productive employment and decent work for all women and men, including for young people and persons with disabilities, and equal pay for work of equal value.
9.4 By 2030, upgrade infrastructure and retrofit industries to make them sustainable, with increased resource-use efficiency and greater adoption of clean and environmentally sound technologies and industrial processes, with all countries taking action in accordance with their respective capabilities.
11.3 By 2030, enhance inclusive and sustainable urbanization and capacity for participatory, integrated and sustainable human settlement planning and management in all countries.
11.4 Strengthen efforts to protect and safeguard the world’s cultural and natural heritage.
11.6 By 2030, reduce the adverse per capita environmental impact of cities, including by paying special attention to air quality and municipal and other waste management.
12.2 By 2030, achieve the sustainable management and efficient use of natural resources.
12.5By 2030, substantially reduce waste generation through prevention, reduction, recycling and reuse.
14.1 By 2025, prevent and significantly reduce marine pollution of all kinds, in particular from land-based activities, including marine debris and nutrient pollution.
15.1 By 2020, ensure the conservation, restoration and sustainable use of terrestrial and inland freshwater ecosystems and their services, in particular forests, wetlands, mountains and drylands, in line with obligations under international agreements.
15.2 By 2020, promote the implementation of sustainable management of all types of forests, halt deforestation, restore degraded forests and substantially increase afforestation and reforestation globally.
15.5 Take urgent and significant action to reduce the degradation of natural habitats, halt the loss of biodiversity and, by 2020, protect and prevent the extinction of threatened species.
15.a Mobilize and significantly increase financial resources from all sources to conserve and sustainably use biodiversity and ecosystems.
Our contribution
We believe that our system can make an important contribution to achieving the goal of sustainable food production. The aeroponic cultivation method is effective and innovative,allowingto intensify productivity and increase the production of vegetables through vertical cultivation.
Our work is inspired by the goals of the 2030 Agenda:we are convincedthat our production activity willbenefit the community, encouraging the development of new technologies that can be used to safeguard and protect resources and biodiversity.
Furthermore, thanks to the partnerships with the Universities of Bologna and FEM (Fondazione Edmund Mach) in Rovereto, our commitment moves in the direction of research, to further deepen and improve our skills on agriculture and on the fundamental role that technology can play in this area for theefficient use of resources.
Our ultimate goal is to bring agriculture where there is now none, whether they are cities, uninhabited areas, disused warehouses, so as to redevelop and convert them.
Our work is intertwined with the issue of pollution since our systems have been designed to respect the environment and use only what is strongly necessary.
We do not waste anything, in fact the water used for cultivation, which is not absorbed by the plants, is collected, purified and remineralized so that it can be reused for sprayingthe roots. We do not use land so that no pesticides are needed, avoiding the pollution of land and water.
We are aware that change needs to start from each one of us and we work to give our contribution to the planet.
