Machu Picchu Carbon Neutral project obtains important certification in the “Green Awards 2022”.

Machu Picchu remains a talking point. This time the project called “Machu Picchu Carbon Neutral” received the “Green Awards 2022” certificate and is ranked among the top 500 worldwide.

It is worth mentioning that “Premios Verdes” is the most important sustainability festival that every year awards, gives visibility and creates networks among the best 500 social and environmental projects in Ibero-America.

“Machu Picchu Carbon Neutral” is ranked 54th in the “Premios Verdes” and 7th in the Education Category. The project was an initiative of the Municipality of Machu Picchu, whose main objective is the conservation of the natural and cultural heritage of this area, achieving a 45% reduction in carbon emissions by 2030 and reaching zero emissions (carbon neutrality) by 2050.

But how did this important project make it to the “Green Awards 2022”?  Eduardo Noriega, an industrial engineer who is always looking for ways to generate opportunities in different business models that go beyond an economic deal and that, in turn, have an impact on nature and on improving people’s lives, especially on the resources that can be generated in his native Peru.

He is one of the national entrepreneurs who, together with “Cocreinnan”, is promoting opportunities in the food, cosmetics, sustainable fashion and bio-materials sectors – with the main focus on natural resources and using biodiversity to become ingredients in these sectors, helping farming and agricultural communities – to demonstrate that we do not need other “extra” resources, “we are our own mentors for business, if we do not have adequate knowledge and information, we waste our own value chain”, said Noriega.

Two other Peruvian projects that have also obtained the Certificate within the top 500 in the “Green 2022 Awards” are the “Andean Amazoni Innovation Co-Creation Centre”, ranked 136th, and 18th in the Education category. Also the “Genes Peru” project is ranked 198th and 23rd in the Community category. Eduardo Noriega’s head is a machine that incubates new ventures and how to articulate the different initiatives that he knows, especially from the Andean and Amazonian communities, rescuing the culture of the area and thinking about how, through the circular economy and taking advantage of the inputs, to generate synergies for co-creation and a timely loyalty of fair trade for all those who start this first stage.
