| AEG and the Global Environment |
| AEG takes pride in its innovation and thoughtful approach to the production of Biodiesel. How we impact the environment is important to us, and environmental considerations are an integral part of AEG’s business practices. From the earliest stages of planning through production, we take great care to keep our activities and our products environmentally sound. |

Agro Practices
|
| It all begins here. Reducing the environmental impact of our farms and refinery starts with the design and planning phase. Design dictates we plan our farming methods, the materials, energy consumption required for harvesting, refining, and the ease of recycling. AEG will continually work to maximize efficiency while minimizing waste. |
| |
| Responsible Production |
| AEG plans not to use chemical fertilizers in its plantations. AEG helps to safeguard the environment by restricting the use of environmentally harmful compounds in our plantations and biodiesel refinery. Our biodiesel reactors will be state of the art machinery that do not use water therefore eliminating waste water runoffs. |
| |
| Energy efficiency |
| A device’s greatest environmental impact is often its energy consumption over time. AEG will take great effort in installing power generators that will run on biodiesel and solar energy. AEG’s plantations, refinery, and transportation will be run by a combination of biodiesel fuel and solar energy. |
| |
| Recycling |
| AEG’s approach to recycling encompasses our end product’s entire lifecycle — includes extensive use of our oil seed cake for fertilizer by plowing it back into the plantations in an environmentally sound manner. Since our oil crushing plant produce by-products such as glycerol, we plan to use it or sell it to manufacture soap and or cosmetics. |
