Flight Free Projects
This is an initiative between youth in Uganda and Seniors Without Borders in Denmark. The Flight Free Projects (FFP) was founded to enhance mitigation and adaptation to climate change for community resilience. And phrasing its own preface as; “To be the leading sustainable income climate change solution-based initiative in Africa”. The founders found redirecting money saved from a limited number of flights to supporting green initiatives and directly using the established initiatives for compensation for carbon using any means of transport that increases one’s carbon footprint. Since October 2019, the strategies to reduce emissions while enhancing the financial capacity of the membership have been set by the founders. Preferably, tree planting and tree nursery establishment to supply and sustain tree planting with smallholder farmers and beyond.
