Story

The Beginning

Our roots are found in the heart of Bangladesh where Mangrove Meets the Mountains. Once upon a time in a bustling city Chittagong, there lived a person named Zia. He was passionate about environmental sustainability and deeply concerned about the devastating effects of climate change. Zia had a dream of leaving behind a livable planet for the next generation, and he was determined to turn that dream into reality.

As we see, Rising sea levels, desertification. Hollywood has always enjoyed imagining the end of the world. While blockbusters like this are clearly fiction. The real picture we have seen, the country we are staying now, Bangladesh, the country are real example of climate disaster and it is a laboratory of climate disaster event. Climate modeling shows us the weather but it doesn't show us the other effects on society. Rahman family came from an area in southern Bangladesh. There, like many other parts of the country, rivers swollen by heavier rain and melting Himalayan glaciers are washing away people's homes. Many, like us, have lost everything. Over 1.4 million people has been migrated in different parts of Bangladesh over last 30 years, we call it Climate Migration and Climate Refugee.

We realize that we have ecosystem loss. Species loss, We have this human health and we are getting less healthy. People realize this system is broken. Climate change isn't about the environment, its about racial justice as well, its about Social injustices, its about economic injustice.

Ziaur Rahman had a background in Finance and a strong desire to make a tangible difference in environment. He decided to start his journey by founding a Clean Tech startup called "Recycle Jar Ecosystem" The mission of Recycle Jar was to tackle climate change and pave the way for a more sustainable future.

With unwavering dedication and a heart full of hope, Rahman began assembling a team of like-minded individuals who shared her vision. Together, they set out to develop innovative carbon projects that not only reduced greenhouse gas emissions but also fostered harmony between humans and the environment.

The first project Recycle Jar initiated was an Agroforestry effort in a region that had suffered from deforestation due to climate change in coastal area. Rahman and his team worked tirelessly to secure partnerships with local communities, government agencies, and environmental organizations. They organized tree-planting events, engaged in community education, and provided sustainable livelihood opportunities for local residents.

The project not only restored forests but also sequestered a significant amount of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. Recycle Jar was committed to measuring and verifying their impact accurately, ensuring transparency and trust among stakeholders. They even used innovative drone technology to monitor the growth and health of the newly planted trees, making sure their efforts were as effective as possible.

As Recycle Jar continued to grow and succeed, Rahman's organization expanded its portfolio to include various agroforestry projects, waste management, renewable energy initiatives, and sustainable urban planning. They advocated for climate-smart policies and collaborated with international partners to address global climate challenges.

Over the years, Recycle Jar's impact was felt not only in the regions they worked but also in the hearts and minds of people worldwide. Rahman and his founding team dedication and determination, along with his team's relentless efforts, were turning his dream of a livable planet for the next generation into a reality.

Journey of a

Climate Tech Startup

Recycle Jar Ecosystem has been founded 2020, initially start with the waste management sectors to Change the Idea of Waste. Recycle Jar Ecosystems is a social enterprise that Changes the Idea of Waste. We tackle the issue from many angles. We have found that nearly everything we touch can be recycled and collect typically non-recyclable items through national, first-of-their-kind recycling and reuse platforms. Contributing in the waste sectors ultimate goal was GHG reduction. Therefore, we enter in the carbon project development sectors. Our model ensures carbon markets and climate finance drive returns for farmers and ranchers. Through our network of global partners, we help farmers and ranchers adopt agroforestry and agricultural practices that increase carbon sequestration. Recycle Jar then quantifies the additional carbon captured and works with international partners to generate Verified Emission Removals (VERs), commonly referred to as carbon credits.

Recycle Jar Ecosystem sells the carbon credits to corporations and governments worldwide, enabling them to meet their sustainability goals. The majority of the proceeds from each carbon credit sold is given directly to the farmers, allowing them to re-invest in themselves and their communities.
